The '''Bowser Monument'''<ref>Musa, Alexander. ''Mario Kart 8'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 130. "'''''Bowser Monument:''' This massive centerpiece is alive! It punches at the course, sending shockwaves through the track.''"</ref> is a giant [[Bowser Statue]] in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. It is the centerpiece of [[Bowser's Castle (Wii U)|Bowser's Castle]], and it is featured in the course's intro. As the racers drive past it, the Bowser Monument punches the track, sending ripples through it that can be used for [[trick]]s. The track splits into two, with the Bowser Monument in the middle of both paths, and it alternatively punches a [[Dash Panel]] on each side of the track. | The '''Bowser Monument'''<ref>Musa, Alexander.

It greatly resembles the other large [[Bowser Statue]]s from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' as well as [[Mecha Bowser]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', but intermixed with lava, and punching instead of shooting fire. | It greatly resembles the other large [[Bowser Statue]]s from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' as well as [[Mecha Bowser]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', but intermixed with lava, and punching instead of shooting fire. | ||
