The course is named for having a layout in the shape of an 8. It is the only "circuit" in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series that is not associated with a character. The Figure-8 Circuit is comparable to several [[Luigi Circuit]] courses throughout the ''Mario Kart'' games for having a simple, straightforward layout with no unique gimmicks and no obstacles. Figure-8 Circuit is where the awards ceremony is held after every [[cup]]. | ||
Figure-8 Circuit has a different introduction fanfare on Grand Prix, which is shared with [[DS Waluigi Pinball|Waluigi Pinball]], [[DS Mario Circuit|Mario Circuit]] (which uses the same music theme as Figure-8 Circuit) and {{classic-link|GCN|Luigi Circuit}}. | Figure-8 Circuit has a different introduction fanfare on Grand Prix, which is shared with [[DS Waluigi Pinball|Waluigi Pinball]], [[DS Mario Circuit|Mario Circuit]] (which uses the same music theme as Figure-8 Circuit) and {{classic-link|GCN|Luigi Circuit}}. | ||

Figure-8 Circuit has a basic wide layout with prolonged turns, allowing racers to perform several [[Drift|power-slide]]s. The finish line is right after where the track crosses under the upper part of the course. Most of Figure-8 Circuit's details are in the background, starting with the bleachers that consist of a full crowd, which are heard cheering as racers drive by. The bleachers start from the race line and end at a background pit stop to the right. There are no obstacles in the course except for grass surrounding the boundaries. The pit stop is immediately followed by a straightforward path. From there, a few large [[Warp Pipe]]s and platform blocks resembling those from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' can be seen on grassy hills in the distance. After the straight path is a loop, which takes racers around and then overlaps beneath a bridge that is supported by some bricks. The road on top of the bridge is the center of the straight path, which reveals that the straight path is slightly slanted downward. The lap ends after going under the bridge. | Figure-8 Circuit has a basic wide layout with prolonged turns, allowing racers to perform several [[Drift|power-slide]]s.
