Mario Kart’s Abandoned Racer

Tackling one of Mario Kart's greatest mysteries

A massive, massive thank you to everyone involved in making this project possible such as my amazing girlfriend, family, friends and those who allowed me to film them and work at their location. This video genuinely would not be possible without them such as my good friend ​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠‪@mikenorrito6045‬
Thank you all so very much!

Harassment of any kind towards the commenters used in this video is not condoned.
