It is [[Mario]]'s home track of the game. It is the second shortest course of the game after [[N64 Moo Moo Farm|Moo Moo Farm]]. This track shares its music with [[N64 Luigi Raceway|Luigi Raceway]], [[Wario Stadium]] and [[N64 Royal Raceway|Royal Raceway]]. | ||

This course features Mario's [[Mario Cap|red cap]] on the top of the course's terrace, next to the starting line. The road is made of concrete, just like [[N64 Luigi Raceway|Luigi Raceway]] and [[N64 Royal Raceway|Royal Raceway]]. Although the course has no pit hazards, it is filled in rough grass, and running over them causes any kart to slow down. However, using a speed booster as a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] or a [[Super Star|Star]], drivers can make shortcuts through the grass and dust. [[Piranha Plant]]s are an obstacle found over the grass, and bumping into one causes the Kart to spin around. Many Piranha Plants are located near to the corners. | |||
Upon getting to the first turn, the racers go near a hill to take a semi-circular turn surrounding a big toadstool. A long stretch of the road is next, featuring a giant rotating sign with text reading "Go" and Mario's artwork from ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Running into this sign while using a Star causes it to rise into the air.<ref>Supper Mario Broth (November 16, 2018).

Mario Raceway makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' as the fourth and last race of the [[Shell Cup]]. Some of the new elements added to the track are a ramp to perform [[trick]]s in the middle of the rough grass past the toadstool, and [[Shine Sprite]]s can be seen on the "Mario Star" advertisements on the side of the course near the finish line. The rotating signs feature new artwork of Mario which is later used for Mario's [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[AR Card]] and the king card in the NAP-02 deck of [[Mario Playing Cards]].

The tunnel also allows tricking off the sides as the racer comes out. The first ''Mario Kart Wii'' tournament of November 2008 was on this course, with extra obstacles such as [[Pokey]]s from {{classic-link|DS|Desert Hills}} and [[Dry Dry Ruins (race course)|Dry Dry Ruins]], and oil slicks from {{classic-link|SNES|Mario Circuit 3}}. | ||

It was a time trial race, in which players used the [[Golden Dash Mushroom|Golden Mushroom]] to get the fastest time possible. Oil slicks and [[Pokey]]s also made an appearance.

| | Mario Raceway returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting from the [[Mario vs. Luigi Tour (2023)|2023 Mario vs. Luigi Tour]]. Visually, the course resembles the ''Mario Kart Tour'' iteration of [[N64 Luigi Raceway|Luigi Raceway]], with the grandstand, the starting banner and the trees having the same design of the mentioned course. [[Hot-air balloon|Hot-air balloons]] have been added to the background, akin to [[N64 Yoshi Valley]]. A glass wall now runs along the entire stretch of the hill in the top half of the course. Like [[N64 Choco Mountain]], the proportions of the course differ notably from the original version of the track - most notably, the track has been condensed vertically. The U-turn around the mushroom is more banked and no longer has any offroad between it and the wall. The brick wall now has indented sections. [[Goomba]]s now appear in the pipe section; the pipe itself is now designed like the one present in [[3DS Mario Circuit]], and has rocks blocking off the offroad areas on either side of it, making it now mandatory to drive through. The R/T variant sees the mushroom present in all iterations of the track be given the properties of the [[Mushroom Trampoline]] and has racers drive on top of the pipe on Lap 2. The course is a favorite of [[Toad (species)|Red Toad (Pit Crew)]], [[Birdo|Birdo (Red)]], [[Mario|Mario (Sunshine)]], [[Mario|Mario (Samurai)]], [[White Tanooki Mario]], [[Toadette|Toadette (Astronaut)]], and the [[Mii|Peach]], [[Mii|Gold]], [[Mii|Moo Moo]], and [[Mii|Monty Mole Mii Racing Suits]]. | ||
