Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Gold Wild Slugger is a High-End kart in Mario Kart Tour. It made its debut in the 2023 Summer Tour. As its name indicates, it is a golden Wild Slugger, which itself is a variant of the Pinch Hitter, including the tires. Unlike the Wild Slugger and the Pinch Hitter, this kart increases the duration of Rocket Start boosts and the number of points earned for performing a Rocket Start.
