'''Mario Speedwagons''' is a 4-Player [[minigame]] found in ''[[Mario Party 4]]'' and ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]''.
'''Mario Speedwagons''' is a 4-player [[mini-game]] found in ''[[Mario Party 4]]''. Each [[player]] starts out in a customized racing car. The goal is the be the first one to cross the finish line. Along the way, the car's gears will need to shift as it picks up speed. This is indicated by the gea numbers flashing in the bottom-right corner. However, correct timing is needed, as shifting too fast or too slow will result in a decrease in speed or no increase in speed, respectively.

*The name of the mini-game is a pun on the name of the American rock band [[wikipedia: REO Speedwagon|REO Speedwagon]].
The minigame begins with a traffic signal, and racers begin when the green light flashes. It is represented as a 3–2–1 countdown in ''Mario Party: The Top 100''. Players try to cross the finish line in a {{wp|drag race}} in their uniquely colored {{wp|Top Fuel|top fuel dragster}} first. When the gear numbers flash, a player is requires to switch gears, but doing this either early or too late results in either a decrease or no increase in speed, respectively. If a player accelerates too quickly at the start, their car does not move much.


It is the third minigame of Decathlon in ''Mario Party: The Top 100''.
