The '''Wheel Virus''' is an [[item]] in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP]]'', ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]''.
A '''Driver Virus''' is an [[item]] in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]''. The Driver Virus's purpose is to attack a player and temporarily slow them down. A driver in possession of the item can release it behind them like a [[Banana|banana peel]], possibly hitting another driver. Once afflicted by the Driver Virus, the driver can pass on the virus by coming into contact with other drivers. The Driver Virus resembles [[Virus|Chill]] with swirling eyes, one of the viruses from ''[[Dr. Mario (game)|Dr. Mario]]''. In ''Mario Kart Arcade GP DX'', Chill has his normal eyes, while the original design is used solely for the [[Dizziness Virus]].


The Wheel Virus is a lock-on item which takes the form of a [[Virus|Blue Virus]] from the [[Dr. Mario (series)|''Dr. Mario'' series]] that holds a purple steering wheel. The Wheel Virus shoots straight forward, and upon a successful hit, the Wheel Virus will float above the targeted racer's head and periodically turn the racer's steering wheel back and forth, messing up the racer's path. The Wheel Virus can be passed to another racer by bumping into them, removing it from the first racer in the process. After a set period of time, the Wheel Virus disappears.
Unlike human-controlled racers, CPU racers will lose speed upon being hit by a Wheel Virus.
A similarly functioning item known as the [[Dizziness Virus]] exists.
