Hot Wheels Mario Kart: Rainbow Road Track
$150
It’s not cheap–but this might be one of the coolest Hot Wheels tracks you can buy. Stretching for eight feet and featuring five lanes, you can send your karts down the iconic (and horribly difficult) Rainbow Road. It can be configured in two different ways for added versatility, and it’s paired with karts for King Boo and Mario. It’s also equipped with a finish line that depicts the winning lane and is built with additional sound effects and functioning lights. This set is exclusive to Target.
Hot Wheels Mario Kart: Bowser’s Castle Track
$65
Another Target exclusive, this time a bit more affordable. Featuring two loops and a wind-up Bowser statue that slams down his fists, it’s a unique course for racers. Slam launchers mean you can send your Hot Wheels flying down their loops at ultra-fast speeds, and it’s bundled with Blue Yoshi Hot Wheels.
Hot Wheels Mario Kart: Circuit Lite Track
$99
Featuring slam launchers, loops that send your karts into an upside-down spiral, and an included Mario Hot Wheels, it’s a fun choice for young fans. You’ll find a bunch of other bonuses throughout the track, including décor for coins, Goombas, and mushrooms.
Hot Wheels Mario Kart: Jungle Kingdom Track
$28
Inspired by The Super Mario Bros. Movie, this set lets you send karts soaring through a “waterfall.” There’s also a broken loop and a few twists and turns, making it a pretty acrobatic track for just $28. It’s bundled with a Mario Hot Wheels.
Hot Wheels Mario Kart: Thwomp Ruins Track
$24
Send your Hot Wheels flying toward Thwomp–time it right, and you’ll loop around the course. Along with the small track, you’ll get a bonus Luigi Kart. It’s one of the most affordable Mario Kart tracks, so be sure to give it a look.
Hot Wheels Mario Kart: Piranha Plant Slide Track
$23
This small loop has you navigating a large Piranha Plant that dives down toward passing karts. It’s a pretty simple track, but with a bundled Yoshi Kart and a great low price, it’s a nice option for frugal shoppers.
Hot Wheels Mario Kart: Chain Chomp Track
$30
Featuring a mushroom slam launcher, a spinning chain chomp, and a track with a massive jump, this is a pretty cool course that doesn’t take up much space. Time the launch right, and you’ll loop around the course. Time it wrong, and Chain Chomp will send your kart sailing. A Donkey Kong Kart is included.
Hot Wheels Mario Kart: Boo’s Spooky Sprint Track
$29
Boo is haunting this course, and you’ll have to jump over them to successful complete the circuit. After winding up the obstacle with a built-in handle, Boo will automatically move around the course, making this a fun interactive set. A Shy Guy Kart is included.
