    Does it run on mushroom power? It is, after all, a Mario "Kart".

      I hope the UKers from here compete and win. Goodluck for those that do compete.

    Where's the Yoshi Kart?
    That would be funny if all you needed to do for gas was throw a few mushroom in the engine. xD

    Sorry, but I couldn't imagine driving that thing. Everyone would be laughing at you. I'd just sell it to some Fanboy.

      Mostly everybody would be laughing.
      But there's probably be some Mario fans who are thinking. "Man I wish I had that car."

    Thety should give you free banana peels and mushrooms with the car. Then it would be worth while.
