Big Donut is one of the four battle stages in Mario Kart 64, and it also reappears in Mario Kart 7 as a retro battle stage.
Layout[]
The stage is made completely out of wooden planks in the shape of a circle, and they slope a little to the center. This gives the Course a donut shape in appearance, in accordance with its name. In the epicenter of the course, a giant pit of lava awaits those who venture too close to the middle (donut hole). If a player falls into it, they will lose a balloon and will have to be returned by a Lakitu. There are four block towers located around the course that provide a means of evasion from opposing racers and their items.
Mario Kart 7[]
This battle stage reappears in Mario Kart 7, with the stage being mostly unchanged apart from the improved graphics and the addition of glider pads, Lava Plumes which erupt from the lava, and air-spawning Koopa Clown Cars.
Trivia![]
- This, Battle Course 2 (GBA) and Grumble Volcano are the only courses in the whole Mario Kart series with lava in that aren't named after Bowser.
- This is unless you count Lakeside Park with lava running in the background.
- 2 Item Boxes Are Hidden Underneath Big Donut.
