Tour Berlin Byways: Difference between revisions

Racers start besides the {{wp|Berlin Cathedral}}, facing away from the [[Brandenburg Gate]]. After a slight right turn, players pass the {{wp|Rotes Rathaus}} and drive along the [[Berlin Wall]], avoiding [[Whomp]]s as they navigate the bendy road. After passing the wall, racers can drive either besides or under the {{wp|Oberbaum Bridge}} in a long straight-away, which then turns to the right before reaching the {{wp|Schiller Monument (Berlin)|Schiller Monument}}. Racers can chose to go either left or right around the monument, however both meet up very shortly after. After driving down a short, narrow staircase, players navigate along a small dirt path in the {{wp|Tiergarten (park)|Tiergarten}} before driving on the long road behind the Brandenburg Gate. After driving through the large gate while avoiding a pair of [[Thwomp]]s, and taking a slight left, racers drive to the finish line.

At the start of the {{wp|Tiergarten (park)|Tiergarten}} section after the first curve, there is a path with slightly darker grass with a lower relief to the right that can only be taken with the use of a [[Mushroom]]. Once taken, it leaves racers to the street leading to the Brandenburg Gate.

The course also appears as '''Berlin Byways R''' (reversed), '''Berlin Byways T''' (with ramps), and '''Berlin Byways R/T''' (reversed with ramps). The former two debuted alongside the normal variant in the [[Metropolitan Tour]], while the latter debuted in the [[Spring Tour]]. In the R variant, one of the Whomps has been moved to the final turn. In the T variant, there is a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] to the right of the Schiller Monument. In the R/T variant, one of the Thwomps is gone and there are now three Whomps on the course; two are on the turn where racers enter the Tiergarten, and one is on the final turn. Additionally, racers can bounce off of the stationary [[Car (obstacle)|cars]] at the end of the track.
