Check out the technology that could power Universal’s Mario Kart ride

We know that Universal is working on Nintendo-themed lands for its theme parks in Japan, Orlando, and Hollywood. We also know that a ride based on Mario Kart will be its marquee attraction. Now we might have an idea of how the ride will work.

Theme Park University has shown off a new ride that opened in a lesser-known Japanese theme park called Suzuka Circuit. As you can see in the video above, it has people board cars that race side-by-side along a track, but they can also physically turn their vehicles.
