Then the player can choose between seven karts, five of them being unlockable. Unlike the other two Arcade GP releases, Time Trial is not present in the game. Grand Prix, National Battle, and multi-player modes are featured in the game. In earlier games, 'Time Up!' was used instead. Players who do not finish receive this message and the race results screen as usual, but the process here is one second faster than the normal process. The time limit for a race is 250 seconds, if the player takes too long or 15 seconds pass after the leader finishes, this screen is displayed.
