The course starts at the entrance to a ride known as the Sub Coaster. After going through the entrance building and turning right twice, the course splits into two jumps leading into a short [[underwater driving|underwater section]]. Soon after that, the course approaches a large anti gravity loop. On this loop, as well as before it, characters can hit the wheels of the [[submarine]]s, which act as [[Spin Boost Pillar]]s, to get a [[Spin Boost]]. After the large loop, the track once again goes underwater leading to a curve around an Aqua Cups ride. Shortly after the turn is another one that leads to a [[Glide Ramp]], which approaches another ride called the [[List of sponsors in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#W Wheel|W Wheel]] as well as the finish line behind it. | ||

Posters in the entrance for the Sub Coaster show the structure of the Sub Coaster cars, the structure of a [[Mecha Cheep]], and the height requirement for the ride (being taller than a [[Goomba]]). The poster for "History of the Submarine" indicates that the first generation model was manufactured in 1987, the year ''[[Famicom Grand Prix: F1 Race]]'', the first racing game to feature ''Super Mario'' characters, was released; similarly, the most recent model is stated to have been manufactured in 2014, the year ''Mario Kart 8'' itself was released in. | ||
