Template:Racecourse Los Angeles Laps 3 is a race course in Mario Kart Tour. It is named after the city Los Angeles, California, and as such it makes its debut in the city's namesake tour, the 2021 Los Angeles Tour. Despite being labeled as Los Angeles Laps 3, the course was released before Los Angeles Laps 2, making it the second playable variation of the Los Angeles Laps course. This course is a favorite of Pink Yoshi, Birdo (Black), Fire Rosalina, Pauline (Rose), Mario (Baseball), Luigi (Vacation), Mario (Golf), and Donkey Kong Jr. (SNES). It can also be a favorite of Chargin' Chuck if he is at level 6.

Layout

In the standard layout, players start on a street that runs perpendicular to the Santa Monica Pier. Just after the starting line, the road curves to the left in front of Tongva Park, then makes a slight right as it goes under a bridge, and then curves left again to go through the Los Angeles Convention Center. The road curves to the right as it goes under the canopy of the convention center, and then curves left shortly before a Glide Ramp which sends the player over Dodger Stadium. After landing on the other side of the stadium, the player immediately makes two left turns before continuing down a curvy road towards Two Rodeo Drive. After going through Rodeo Drive, the player makes a sharp left turn to return to the finish line.
