Unlike previous incarnations, this Rainbow Road uniquely contains a vertical loop and a corkscrew, the only inversions in a ''Mario Kart'' course before ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' (excluding [[Jump Boost|tricks]]). Rails border the sides of both inversions to prevent racers from falling off sideways. Those elements may have been added to ensure challenge; players can place items so their opponents can fall off the corkscrew or the loop. However, there are glitches on the corkscrew and the loop. If a player drifts and hits the rail or continues touching the rail, it can send them floating up, typically out of bounds (though in rare cases, the player may fall onto the corkscrew without being brought back to the correct part of the track). On top of this, this Rainbow Road also has many sharp turns and a helix, not unlike the previous version in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''. Some multi-colored [[Warp Pipe]]s and [[Star]]s appear in space around the track. Additionally, the coloring pattern of this looks different from the previous Rainbow Roads: here, the color stripes on this track are horizontal and follow along it, instead of vertically across the track. | Unlike previous incarnations, this Rainbow Road uniquely contains a vertical loop and a corkscrew, the only inversions in a ''Mario Kart'' course before ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' (excluding [[Jump Boost|tricks]]).
