Template:Racecourse Figure-8 Circuit is a race course in Mario Kart DS. It is the first race course of the Mushroom Cup, as well as the location of the awards ceremony held after any cup. The race track resembles an 8. It is comparable to Luigi Circuit of numerous other Mario Kart games, as simple, straightforward, and free of gimmicks. This race course has its own music introduction.
Missions

Official descriptions
- Instruction booklet and official website: “This figure-eight shaped course boasts a wide racetrack with easy corners. It’s ideal for constant top-speed racing.”
- Official European website: “With just two straights and two bends, your first stop in the mushroom cup season is as simple as they come (with the exception of Baby Park’s basic loop). So hit the gas, impress the crowds and save your strengths for the harder tracks to come.”

Trivia
- In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there is a Mario Kart-themed course entitled "Mario Circuit" that has a similar layout to Figure-8 Circuit.
- This is the only "circuit" in the Mario Kart series that is not owned by any playable character.
- In Mario Kart 8's rendition of Mario Circuit, it's shaped after a number 8, much like this course. However, it's also based on a Möbius strip, thanks to the game's anti-gravity mechanic.
