Tilt-a-Kart is the final unlockable battle course in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! It is unlocked by winning Flower Cup in Mirror Mode.
The course is made up of giant tiles forming a sprite of Small Mario from Super Mario Bros. White tiles are the only tiles to affect karts, specifically by slowing them. The course sometimes tilts, affecting the movement of Item Boxes a la the dining room of Daisy Cruiser. Unlike other battle courses, it is possible for players to fall off in Tilt-a-Kart, after which they respawn on a small white platform to drive off of and re-enter the course.
A unique music track plays in every mode except Shine Thief. It begins with a short motif from the Ground Theme from Super Mario Bros.; the rest of the song is a remastered version of Baby Park's theme, with an addition of crash cymbals played throughout the music track, the backing piano chords being swapped for an organ, and said chords being in a lower inversion.
The concept of a platform resembling this Mario sprite divided into tiles was later used in Toy Time Galaxy from Super Mario Galaxy and Mario Squared Galaxy from Super Mario Galaxy 2. The course's background also somewhat resembles that of the secret courses in The Secret of Ricco Tower and The Hotel Lobby's Secret from Super Mario Sunshine.
