+'''Kartastrophe''' is a 4-Player [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', as well as a single-player minigame in the game's [[Test for the Best]] mode. It takes place on a track akin to most circuit tracks. Its name is a portmanteau of "[[kart]]" and "catastrophe."
 ==Introduction==
-The four players (or one person) will be lined up at the starting line, in cars. The lights will beep, and then turn green, letting the players go.
+The players drive their karts up to the starting line as the lights signal the start of the race.
-==Gamplay==
+==Gameplay==
-This is a racing game. The four players will go through the course twice, pressing 2 to accelerate and 1 to decelerate. They will turn by tilting their [[Wii Remote]]. On sharp curves, when the player turns their Wii Remote all the way, for a second or two, the car will start to skid, making it easier to make the tight curves. The first player who crosses the finish line at the end of the second lap is declared the winner.
+The four players compete in a simple two-lap race around the circuit. Players can turn their [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remotes]] all the way to turn at sharp curves. The first player to reach the finish line wins. Ties are possible if multiple racers finish within a fraction of a second.
+==Test for the Best==
+In Test for the Best, the player is alone and must complete two laps of the circuit in the fastest time possible. The times required to earn a certain points total are as follows:
+{| class="wikitable"
