Mario Kart DS/Delfino Square

Delfino Square is a fast-paced circuit inspired by Super Mario Sunshine. The track is themed around a bustling dock with the town's natives spectating the ongoing race. What makes Delfino Square one track that stands out from the rest is that there few areas to easily power boost in, and in some cases this can leave you and your opponents vulnerable to quickly losing ground and bidding immediate loss simply just by making the simplest blunder during the preparation or exhaustion of a badly-timed power boost. Excessive finesse and perfection of your power boosting on this track is highly recommended when aiming for fine-tuned efficiency through curves and being able to snake the finish line's first and last straightaway well. If you don't and you don't often, you probably won't fair well and anyone who could care less will be able to make short work of you. The principle secret to efficiency behind this track is simple: Power boost only if you're confident you can do it, and you're sure that releasing a power boost won't worsen your situation, especially in spite that this is one of the few tracks that employs a "no tolerance" attitude towards mistakes.
