Big Donut is a battle course in Mario Kart 64. As its name implies, the course is in the shape of a large donut. It later reappears in Mario Kart 7 as a retro battle course.
Mario Kart 64[edit]
The layout of Big Donut is quite simple. Walls line the outside of the course, but in the center hole of the donut is a pool of lava. If the players fall in it, they lose a balloon, and a Lakitu brings them out. There are also four rectangle-shaped blocks located around the course that provide a means to evade opposing racers and their items. The course is also slightly sloped inwards.
Mario Kart 7[edit]
The course's music is now the Mario Kart Wii arrangement of N64 Skyscraper. In the game, the stage is given new elements. The blocks are now color-coded (red, blue, green, and yellow). There are jumping ramps so that players can use the gliders to fly over the pool of lava. The added Koopa Clown Car, floating in the center of the course, makes air currents so players can glide even higher. Lava Geysers often rise from the pool to plummet the players while gliding and make them fall into the lava. This is the only battle course in the game to activate the gliders.
