If you grew up owning the track in Mario Kart, now you can test your skills on the road.

Mushroom Rally, a Super Mario-themed go-kart experience, is making its way to South Florida this June with four days of costumes, mushrooms, and Nintendo magic. The event will be in town June 1, 2, 8 and 9 at K1 Speed in Medley.

The Mushroom Rally tour is stopping in 16 cities, and the top three fastest drivers overall will make their way to Las Vegas for the final race.

Drivers buy tickets ($55 each) for a two-hour time slot on the go-kart track, and costumes are provided by Mushroom Rally for each group. In each session, 10 groups race and the top three racers win a prize. During the session, racers are encouraged to collect stars by performing different tasks, just like Mario.

The top three star collectors in the country are also going to Vegas.
