Wario Colosseum

History: 

The construction and use of Wario Colosseum in the Grand Prix has been controversial. In the days of Ancient Mushroom Kingdom, the Colosseum was the site of grand games surveyed over by the King, but in the centuries since its popularity it has feel into ruin and disrepair. Wario was able to use his cash and influence to outfit the Ruins to fit a contemporary sport - Kart Racing. Similar to his insistence on Stadium Tracks where he can sell more tickets for a bigger profit, his Colosseum was meant to house a great number of spectators. This has come as an ire to preservationists in the Kingdom who did not want to see their heralded ruins damaged. Wario also built a track so long and complex that it was decreed by the Grand Prix organizers to be set at two laps rather than three. This is the only track in Mario Kart History to be so adjusted, which Wario always viewed as a slight to his entrepreneurship. This track has not appeared again due to this handful of issues.

Double Dash:

There is a lot to this course. It's similar in theme to Wario Stadium in that it has many twists and turns and curves and is also extremely long. It could actually be interpreted as a three-dimensional version of that course. There are many straightaways, boost pads and a wide collection of 90° turns. It's a jumbled mess and a difficult track to come back on if you fall behind. Someone maneuverable is vital but it is also a pain to lose a close photo finish on that final straightaway.


There are also Secret Staff Ghosts on every track in Double Dash. For Wario Colosseum the Staff Ghost is Wario with Waluigi in tow cruising around in the Wario Car. They finish with a time of 2:21:106.
