'''Los Angeles Laps''' is a race course in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. It takes place in {{wp|Los Angeles}}, {{wp|California}}, [[United States of America|United States]], and as such it makes its debut in the city's namesake tour, the [[Los Angeles Tour (2020)|2020 Los Angeles Tour]]. However, the course itself also includes landmarks from the greater {{wp|Los Angeles County, California|Los Angeles County}}, such as the {{wp|Santa Monica Pier}} and the {{wp|Inglewood Oil Field}}. Los Angeles Laps has three separate routes called Los Angeles Laps, '''Los Angeles Laps 2''', and '''Los Angeles Laps 3'''. The third route debuted first in the [[Los Angeles Tour (2021)|2021 Los Angeles Tour]] while the second route debuted in the [[Los Angeles Tour (2022)|2022 Los Angeles Tour]]. The first route features the Santa Monica Pier and {{wp|Venice,_Los_Angeles#Venice_Beach|Venice Beach}}, the second route focuses on the Inglewood Oil Field, while the third route takes racers over {{wp|Dodger Stadium}} and through {{wp|Beverly Hills}}. Unlike other city courses, each route of Los Angeles Laps takes place in an entirely different part of the overall track, with every route having its own [[Finish line (object)|finish line]] position: another characteristic unique to this course. The inclusion of this course makes the United States the only country to be represented by more than one city course, with [[Tour New York Minute|New York Minute]] having been introduced prior.
'''Los Angeles Laps''' is a race course in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. It is named and based after {{wp|Los Angeles}}, {{wp|California}}, [[United States of America|United States]], and as such it makes its debut in the city's namesake tour, the [[Los Angeles Tour (2020)|2020 Los Angeles Tour]]. However, the course itself takes place in {{wp|Santa Monica, California|Santa Monica}} and the landmark {{wp|Santa Monica Pier}}; the course even has flags that write out "Welcome to Santa Monica". Los Angeles Laps has three separate routes, similar to [[Tour Paris Promenade|Paris Promenade]] and [[London Loop]]: Los Angeles Laps, '''Los Angeles Laps 2''', and '''Los Angeles Laps 3'''. Unlike other city courses, each route of Los Angeles Laps takes place in an entirely different part of the overall track, thus every route has its own [[Finish Line (object)|finish line]] position. This layout lets racers visit the beach side of the track, therefore the finish line is positioned on the Santa Monica Pier. The inclusion of this track makes the United States the only country to be represented by more than one city track, being this along with the [[Tour New York Minute|New York Minute]] tracks.


Los Angeles Laps appears as a classic course in the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'' for ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as the first course of the [[Cherry Cup]]. Its theme was arranged for the ''Booster Course Pass''{{'}} end credits.
The first route of this course is a favorite of [[Pauline|Pauline (Party Time)]], [[Toad|Toad (Party Time)]], [[Mario|Mario (Swimwear)]], [[Mario|Mario (Sunshine)]], [[Fire Mario|Fire Rosalina]], [[Princess Daisy|Daisy (Swimwear)]], and [[Mario|Mario (Baseball)]]. The second route is a favorite of [[Mario|Mario (Swimwear)]], [[Mario|Mario (Baseball)]], [[Mario|Mario (Golf)]], [[King Bob-omb|King Bob-omb (Gold)]], [[Waluigi|Waluigi (Vampire)]], and [[Chargin' Chuck]], and the third route is a favorite of [[Yoshi (species)|Pink Yoshi]], [[Birdo (species)|Birdo (Black)]], [[Fire Mario|Fire Rosalina]], [[Pauline|Pauline (Rose)]], [[Mario|Mario (Baseball)]], [[Luigi|Luigi (Vacation)]], [[Mario|Mario (Golf)]], [[Donkey Kong Jr.|Donkey Kong Jr. (SNES)]] and [[Chargin' Chuck]] if he is at level 6.


==''Mario Kart Tour''==
The route labelled as the second route, Los Angeles Laps 2, released after Los Angeles Laps 3. This means Los Angeles Laps 2 is actually the third playable layout of this course.
Several landmarks of Los Angeles and Santa Monica can be seen throughout each of Los Angeles Laps' layouts, which are {{wp|777 Tower}}, {{wp|Beverly Hills City Hall}}, {{wp|Capitol Records Building}}, {{wp|Dodger Stadium}}, {{wp|Inglewood Oil Field}}, {{wp|Los Angeles City Hall}}, {{wp|Los Angeles Convention Center}}, {{wp|Muscle Beach}}, {{wp|Rodeo Drive Walk of Style}}, {{wp|Santa Monica Pier}}, {{wp|Tongva Park}}, {{wp|Venice Beach}} and the {{wp|Venice Beach Skatepark}}, {{wp|Griffith Observatory}}, {{wp|Getty Center}}, and the {{wp|Westin Bonaventure Hotel}}.

In the standard layout, all of the racers start the course on the {{wp|Santa Monica Pier}}. Just after the starting line, the road curves to the left through a couple shops and onto the beach, then makes a slight left through a blue lifeguard tower. After continuing left, the course shifts right into a skatepark with multiple paths and graffiti of a [[Bill Blaster]], some [[Bullet Bill]]s, [[Banana]]s, [[Blooper]]s, two Bob-omb Plugs icons, two [[Red Shell]]s, a [[Bowser]] icon and some [[Piranha Plant]]s in a [[Warp Pipe]]. After that, the course shifts left underneath an elongated lifeguard tower bridge; the course then curves to the left where the rest of the beach is littered with a few [[Sidestepper]]s and an [[Underwater driving|underwater section]] at the side. On the second lap, most of the water will disappear. Players can then make a slight S-motion into a double-lane road through the street, where they can alternate between the two lanes at will. After a wide turn left, the player then drives straight and back onto the pier, where the finish line awaits.

When configured for Coin Rush, signs direct Gold Mario up the highest skate ramp while cars and buses block off a lane in the double-lane road, making the collection of coins easier.

The course also appears as '''Los Angeles Laps R''' (reversed), '''Los Angeles Laps T''' (with ramps), and '''Los Angeles Laps R/T''' (reversed with ramps). In the T variant, there is a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] where racers leave the Santa Monica Pier, and there is a [[Thwomp]] atop the skatepark. In the R/T variant, there is a glide ramp shortly before racers return to the pier.

The course begins in a different location from Los Angeles Laps, with the starting line instead located on a road far away from the {{wp|Santa Monica Pier}}. This is due to this route's layout not involving the pier and the beach in any way, unlike the first route. Following a left turn, racers drive towards the {{wp|Inglewood Oil Field}}. Taking a slight left turn brings them into the oil field, where there are multiple forks in the road. Each route features pumpjacks as obstacles. Racers take a U-turn to the left to continue through the oil field, avoiding two more pumpjacks and a large water tower. There is also a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] here to the right of the track, blocked by some off-road. A sharp right takes the racers back into the main city streets, where they cross a bridge on a long straightaway before taking one last left turn back to the starting line.

Despite being labeled as the second route, Los Angeles Laps 2 released seven months after Los Angeles Laps 3 did. This marks the second time a city course's layouts were released out of numerical order, the first being [[Tour Berlin Byways|Berlin Byways]], with Berlin Byways 2 being released more than a year before Berlin Byways.
 
The course also appears as '''Los Angeles Laps 2R''' (reversed), '''Los Angeles Laps 2T''' (with ramps), and '''Los Angeles Laps 2R/T''' (reversed with ramps). In the T and R/T variants, there is a stationary [[dash panel ramp truck]] on the road. In the T variant, there is also three [[Big Piranha Plant]]s on the course: Two in the Inglewood Oil Field, and one on the final turn. In the oil field, the glide ramp and a few of the pumpjacks are gone. In the R/T variant, racers are guided along one specific route through the oil field.

In the standard layout, players start on a street that runs perpendicular to the {{wp|Santa Monica Pier}}. Just after the starting line, the road curves to the left in front of {{wp|Tongva Park}}, then makes a slight right as it goes under a bridge (which is part of a road in [[Los Angeles Laps 2]]), and then curves left again to go through the {{wp|Los Angeles Convention Center}}. The road curves to the right as it goes under the canopy of the convention center, and then curves left shortly before a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] which sends the player over {{wp|Dodger Stadium}}. After landing on the other side of the stadium, the player immediately makes two left turns before continuing down a curvy road towards {{wp|Rodeo Drive|Two Rodeo Drive}}. After going through Rodeo Drive, the player makes a sharp left turn to return to the finish line. At the start of the curvy road towards {{wp|Rodeo Drive|Two Rodeo Drive}}, there's a small corner that can only be traversed through with the use of a [[Dash Mushroom]].

In the R/T variant, there is a second glide ramp as racers exit the stadium, which allows them to glide up to and drive on the convention center.

[[File:MK8-Course-Tour LosAngelesLaps.jpg|thumb|250px|right|{{classic|Tour|Los Angeles Laps}} in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'']]
For this course's tour appearances, see [[List of Los Angeles Laps tour appearances in Mario Kart Tour|List of Los Angeles Laps tour appearances in ''Mario Kart Tour'']].
Los Angeles Laps returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as part of Wave 5 of the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]''. It appears as the first course of the [[Cherry Cup]]. The course has received significant visual upgrades, now being set in the day instead of sunset. The minimap has also been rotated 180 degrees. Finally, the background music has been heavily rearranged and given a jazzier sound, with most of the synths and all of the "la-la" vocals replaced with live saxophones and guitars.
 
The course begins at the original Los Angeles Laps' starting line, before continuing normally along the first variant until the intersection with 3, turning right and passing under another lap gate on the bridge. Los Angeles Laps 3's route is used for the second section, except at the end, instead of turning left again, racers continue straight before making a left turn into the Inglewood Oil Field, which begins Los Angeles Laps 2's route, passing under another gate to start the third and final section. After passing under pumpjacks and over a bridge, racers make their way back to the four-way central intersection, before turning right and returning to the finish line at the Santa Monica Pier. It is the third course in the ''Mario Kart'' series to open a cup and use sections, after [[Wuhu Loop]] in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' and {{classic-link|Tour|Athens Dash}} in the [[Feather Cup]], as well as the second such course to solely use sections after Wuhu Loop. The {{wp|Venice Beach Skatepark}} now includes a [[Half-pipe (object)|half-pipe]]. The parked cars have been removed. Some of the coins in the baseball-shaped formation at Dodger Stadium now rotate off-axis. Rodeo Drive's elevation has been evened out, with a less gradual jump in height entering it. A ramp with [[Dash Panel|Dash Panels]] has been added around where Los Angeles Laps 3's starting line was in ''Tour'', with another smaller one added along the upper middle route in Inglewood Oil Field. Two [[glider]] [[Ring (Mario Kart series)|rings]] with [[Item Box]]es have been added to Inglewood Oil Field, accessible using the Glide Ramp from the original iteration in ''Tour''. The shortcut along the Los Angeles Laps 3 route is now grassy, while two new ones have been added along the left turns that originally housed the starting line of Los Angeles Laps 2.
 
Los Angeles Laps is one of three courses from ''Mario Kart Tour'' to be present in the fifth wave, alongside {{classic|Tour|Athens Dash}} and {{classic-link|Tour|Vancouver Velocity}}. It is also the only course from ''Mario Kart Tour'' without any half-pipes that would later include them upon returning as a [[classic course]], and one of two among all courses in ''Tour'', as {{classic-link|3DS|Rosalina's Ice World}} also had them added to its ''Booster Course Pass'' version.
 
Prior to the course's official announcement for the Booster Course Pass, a very brief portion of Los Angeles Laps' music was present within the internal data for ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' in version 2.1.0. The filename for the music snippet was "Cnsw_48", meaning it was assigned to the fourth and last course of the [[Boomerang Cup]] in the Booster Course Pass, included in the fourth wave. Los Angeles Laps was not present in the fourth wave of the downloadable content; however, [[Tour Bangkok Rush|Bangkok Rush]], a course labelled internally as a Wave 5 course, was implying that it and Los Angeles Laps were switched at one point in development.

**''This course first appeared in the Mario Kart Tour game. As you'd expect, it's modeled after the (mostly) sunny city of Los Angeles in the United States. In addition to rays of sunshine, you'll also see a palm tree-lined coast and baseball field.''
**''Practice your drifting! This course has a lot of curves, so precise drifting will help you get ahead.''
*'''Nintendo Switch News app (UK):''' '''''There's no biz like the racing biz in Los Angeles Laps'''''<br>''Here's a look at another course released as part of the fifth wave, which is available now: {{color|blue|Los Angeles Laps}}.<br>First appearing in the smart device game {{color|blue|Mario Kart Tour}}, this course takes you down the palm-tree-lined avenues and along the golden sand beaches of the City of Angels itself, the United States' Los Angeles.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*This course has had the most starting line locations out of any course in the series, with five different locations.
*The third route for this course being released before the second route marks the second time a city course's layouts have been released out of order, after [[Berlin Byways|Berlin Byways 2]], which released before Berlin Byways 1.
*This course's name is technically a misnomer in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', as it is a section-based course in that game.
*This is the first city course where the [[Finish Line (object)|finish line]] is at a different location in each layout.
**It is the only section-based course in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' not to be the last course in a cup, being the first course in the cup instead.
