Rainbow Road is the fourth and final course of the Special Cup in Mario Kart 8. Like Rainbow Roads in previous Mario Kart titles, this Rainbow Road takes place in space, along with Mario Kart TV satellites and space stations. In the background lies the Earth, similar to that of Rainbow Road from Mario Kart Wii. One noticeable feature of the track is a space shuttle that resembles a Blooper, that circles around the track, similar to how the train circles around the Lightning Cup's N64 Rainbow Road. The track, similar to Rainbow Road in Super Mario Kart, is made of color square tiles that change colors like the Rainbow Roads from Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart 7.
Course layout
The course starts out in front of the rainbow-colored track. Followed by the start line is the 8-shaped turn which encompasses the anti-gravity section. At the end of the track lies the gliding pad that leads the drivers to the space station. After that drivers will land on the place with M logo in white color carved in it. The space station contains conveyor belts, which is similar to the one in Toad's Factory course in Mario Kart Wii. At the end of the conveyor belt lies two gliding pads which will lead to three mechanical Launch Stars that will lead to two different paths depending on which gliding pad drivers take. Then the two paths corkscrew around each other and then join into a tight spiral turn into the finish line.
