Goombas have appeared as obstacles in various games of the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]]. They behave consistently throughout the series, simply waddling in place and moving slightly left and right on the track and causing a player to spin out from driving into them. However, their size varies between appearances, and ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' renders them as 2D sprites. In most games, if a Goomba is hit by an item, it drops a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]]. In ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', Goombas appear in [[GCN Mario Circuit|Mario Circuit]], waddling in place right before the [[finish line]]. In ''Mario Kart DS'', Goombas appear in [[DS Mario Circuit|Mario Circuit]] and in certain missions, such as the race against Goomboss, who spawns two or three Goombas every few seconds while moving. In ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', Goombas are encountered in [[Mushroom Gorge]], [[Mario Circuit (Mario Kart Wii)|Mario Circuit]], [[Koopa Cape]], and the returning {{classic|GCN|Mario Circuit}}. In ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', are larger, and they appear in [[3DS Mario Circuit|Mario Circuit]] and [[Piranha Plant Slide]], as well as the returning {{classic|Wii|Mushroom Gorge}} and {{classic|Wii|Koopa Cape}}. On Piranha Plant Slide, the underground Goombas are colored blue. In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', Goombas appear in [[Mario Circuit (Mario Kart 8)|Mario Circuit]], {{classic-link|N64|Yoshi Valley}} (replacing [[Porcupo]]s from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''), and {{classic|3DS|Piranha Plant Slide}} in the base game. Additionally, the [[Nintendo Switch]] version's ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'' also includes them in {{classic-link|Tour|New York Minute}}, {{classic|Wii|Mushroom Gorge}}, {{classic|DS|Mario Circuit}}, {{classic|Tour|Athens Dash}}, {{classic|Wii|Koopa Cape}}, and {{classic|Tour|Madrid Drive}}. In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', Goombas are obstacles in many stages and stage variants. They are the main focus of "[[Goomba Takedown]]" challenges, where they may appear in large formations, with the goal of defeating as many as possible in a single lap. Unlike other ''Mario Kart'' games, Goombas can be bowled over by driving into them, but this still causes the racer to spin out. Additionally, a Goomba can now also be defeated by landing on them while gliding or after driving off a ramp, giving the driver a [[Jump Boost]]. For normal course variants, Goombas are found on all versions of [[Tour Paris Promenade|Paris Promenade]], as well as [[Tour Singapore Speedway|Singapore Speedway]], [[Tour Athens Dash|Athens Dash 2]], [[Madrid Drive]], [[RMX Mario Circuit 1]], DS Mario Circuit, Wii Mushroom Gorge, Wii Koopa Cape, 3DS Mario Circuit, and 3DS Piranha Plant Slide. | Goombas have appeared as obstacles in various games of the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]].

Though ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' is the first game to have Goombas as obstacles, ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' is their actual first appearance. However, Goombas, which use their ''[[Paper Mario]]'' design, are restricted to a background appearance in the audience during the award ceremony. Similarly, ''Mario Kart Wii'' also includes Goombas as spectators during the trophy celebration.

Other variants of Goombas are not commonly encountered as obstacles. Technically, the first time any Goomba variation has appeared on a course is in ''Mario Kart 7'', which has [[wooden cutout]]s of Goombas blocking the last few turns of the course. In ''Mario Kart 8'', a [[Goomba Tower]] appears at the end of Mario Circuit. Furthermore, in the Nintendo Switch version's Booster Course Pass, [[Innertube Goomba]]s appear in {{classic-link|Tour|Singapore Speedway}}, like in ''Mario Kart Tour'', and {{classic-link|GCN|Daisy Cruiser}}. In ''Mario Kart Tour''{{'}}s "Goomba Takedown" challenges, Goombas may appear in the form of Goomba Towers. Additionally, the game also features [[Shoe Goomba]]s alongside Goombas in Madrid Drive. | Other variants of Goombas are not commonly encountered as obstacles.
