'''Mario Circuit 2''' is the fifth and final course of the [[Mushroom Cup]] in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. It reappears in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''.

==Course layout==

It is a typical Mario Circuit course, featuring [[Warp Pipe|Pipes]], many curves and also [[oil slick]]s, which have a similar effect on players like [[banana]]s, with the difference that they do not make them lose any [[coin]]s. In addition, there is also a large [[ramp]] that the player must complete, which overlaps another part of the track. When playing in [[Grand Prix]] mode, sometimes a computer driver does not manage to carry out the full jump (mainly last place), preventing them from completing a lap. This can also happen to a player when trying to do the jump too slowly. Since the CPU does not Super Jump near the jump, it becomes a great trap laying area. Several Warp Pipes are placed in the final corner before the finish line.

The course reappeared in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' as the first track in the [[Extra Cup|Extra Flower Cup]]. The background is from [[Mario Circuit (GBA)|that game's own Mario Circuit]]. An extra [[Item Box]] is placed at the left of the track before the jump. The pipe and oil slick hazards have been removed.

In ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', Mario Circuit 2 is the second race course in the [[Banana Cup]]. Unlike previous versions of the track, it has three laps instead of five, and is built in a larger scale, similar to that of [[Mario Circuit 3]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''.

The large jump now encompasses a glider ramp. There is a trick ramp on the large off-road path, and the straight between the 9th and 10th turns is lengthened, in order to prevent racers from cutting the track by using the gliders in a similar way that racers could exploit the jump in previous ''Mario Kart'' games. The straights between the 1st and 7th turns are also made longer. Players may fall to the lower section of the track. If players do fall down, they will get picked up by [[Lakitu]] and brought back to the next section of the track. The [[Finish Line (object)|finish line]] is also placed further back from its original appearance. This is the first retro track ported from the 2D games to have slopes, which are commonplace in 3D games. Additionally, the Warp Pipes and oil slicks return as obstacles, after being absent from the ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'' iteration.

Mario Circuit 2 reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. It remains unchanged in terms of layout, taking its appearance from ''Mario Kart 7''. This course is a favorite of [[Toad|Toad (Pit Crew)]], [[Mario|Mario (Hakama)]], [[Mario|Mario (Happi)]], [[Mario|Mario (Classic)]], and [[Yoshi|Yoshi (Egg Hunt)]]. It is also a favorite of [[Mario|Mario (Chef)]] if he is at level 3, and [[Lakitu]] and [[Toad|Toad (Party Time)]] if they are at level 6. As with other courses in the game, Mario Circuit 2 has an R version, a T version, and an R/T version referred to as '''Mario Circuit 2R''', '''Mario Circuit 2T''' and '''Mario Circuit 2R/T''' respectively; the former two were introduced alongside the regular version in the [[Tokyo Tour]], while the latter was added in the [[New Year's Tour]].

Its music is also retained from ''Mario Kart 7'', whereas other retro courses use the original versions of their themes. It also shares its music with [[Mario Circuit 1]], [[Mario Circuit 3]] and [[RMX Mario Circuit 1]].
