Delfino Square

History:

After the intrusion of Princess Peach and Daisy on the Isle of Delfino the popularity of Kart Racing soared with the Piantas. Through the guidance of Peach the Piantas built the Delfino Square track around Delfino Plaza. It has managed to be a popular track, mostly because the experienced Driver Peach was able to manage its construction. It is now operated independently of the Royal Family, making it one of the few publicly-owned courses.

DS:

Delfino Square is a moderately simple course in the Flower Cup of DS. It is basically a contiguous loop although it does have some alternate paths as well as a massive drawbridge which is either a huge jump or a great straightaway, depending on whether or not it is lifted. It's not a very forgiving course, either. There are plenty of right-angle turns boxed in by buildings, meaning that high handling and acceleration are a necessity. Because of this it's a course that tends to give Heavyweights some trouble. Other than that there are some patches with Offroad possibilities, but nothing to give up a huge shortcut.

The DS Staff Ghost here is Peach in the Royale with a time of 1:54:601. This track returned in Wii where the Staff Ghost is Wario for some reason. The Normal Ghost turns in 2:41.807 using the Wario Bike while the Expert Staff Ghost switches to the Honeycoupe in 2:24.169.
