Mario Circuit 3 is the fifth and final course of the Flower Cup in Super Mario Kart. It was subsequently reused in Mario Kart: Super Circuit as the second track in the Extra Lightning Cup. It is a tarmac circuit set in grassland.
It is a long, almost symmetrical track with many twists and turns (even bearing a faint resemblance to the Sepang International Circuit, located in Malaysia), but no obstacles other than Pipes and Oil Slicks scattered throughout the track. One curve is extremely sharp and is performed best by slowing down or drifting. At the end of the track, there is one zipper which can be used to take the lead or catch up at the last minute. There is also a shortcut: Soon after the sharp twist, there is a less sharp curve. The gap in the crash barrier there can be used to avoid the curve. It is best to use a mushroom or a star here, to avoid slowing down.
Mario Circuit 3 appeared in Mario Kart: Super Circuit, and is the second track in the Extra Lightning Cup. It uses the background from that game's own Mario Circuit. The pipe and oil hazards were removed from the track and an extra item box can be found on the track.
The sharp bend can be used to perform a Mini-Turbo by drifting and holding it for a second or more.
