The Luigi-balloon only carries a standard Item Box, not a Spiny Shell-only one. however, a simple hop can cover it, but a little expertise is needed. This extra track that needs to be driven over is compensated with Dash Panels and Item Boxes usually, a Mushroom will be needed to get to these sections, as it goes over grass. A small little rise in the track just before the first turn lets players perform an aerial trick, and the drift-friendly turns now have small little ramps that allow players to go on top of the outer walls. After this, the Start/Finish Line is within sight.īarely any additions have been made to the new Mario Kart 7 version of Luigi Raceway, which is not a bad thing at all. Right before tunnels entranceway is an electric screen showing the player driving (although it is really lame with about 4 frames per second.) The low-light tunnel finally opens up at the next bend, which is about the same length and curvature as the last. Eventually, it narrows out into a tunnel which was previously driven over. After a while, the track banks inward for a nice place for beginners to practice Power Sliding. The trick is hitting it at the right moment. A Luigi-decaled hot air balloon also delivers a sole Item Box, but this one is special, as it always carries a Spiny Shell. It is very straight for a while, offering Item Boxes. The track begins near a crowd of fans in a stadium marked with a Luigi hat.
