The Mario Circuit tracks have the simplest design of any tracks on Super Mario Kart, and therefore the least hazards. The track istelf is always a standard road surface and is bordered by gravel traps. This good surface gives very good grip. There are multi-coloured brick walls in place to reduce short-cutting. There are often pipes, gravel patches and oil slicks to watch out for on the track. | The Mario Circuit tracks have the simplest design of any tracks on Super Mario Kart, and therefore the least hazards.

* '''Shortcuts:''' The only real shortcut comes from cutting across the gravel on the right hand side after turn 3 and a mushroom is required. Just after the pair of pipes on the right side of the track, turn hard right and aim for the section of track in the distance. Use the mushroom as soon as you start driving on the gravel. | * '''Shortcuts:''' The only real shortcut comes from cutting across the gravel on the right hand side after turn 3 and a mushroom is required.

Also, there is a zip-jump over a section of track towards the end of the lap; make sure you hit this straight on and at high speed so that you clear the jump. | * '''Hazards:''' There are pipes on turns 1, 2 and 9.
