It's a beautiful afternoon at Mario Circuit as the crowd cheered for this amazing day. Today is the big exhibition race between the Mario Brothers as Lakitu said, "Good afternoon, everyone! Welcome to Mario Kart and today's exhibition race coming to you live from Mario Circuit! We have a real treat for you this afternoon as these two brothers go head-to-head in a race to the finish. So buckle up your seat belts and get ready for some brotherly love because it's time for... THE BATTLE OF THE MARIO BROS.!"

As Lakitu heard this, the crowd erupted in cheers. Lakitu then said, "Alright then, let's meet them shall we? They are the protectors of the Mushroom Kingdom and they always fight Bowser and his minions. They love to race all across the track and they are great athletes. Ladies and gentlemen, it gives me great pleasure to introduce the dynamic duo... THE MARIO BROTHERS!"

Just then, two karts came in to the starting line as Mario and Luigi entered the racing course in their red and green go-karts as the crowd cheered for them.

When they got to the starting line, the crowd cheered again as Mario and Luigi wave to the crowd. Then Lakitu said, "There they are, ladies and gentlemen! The protectors of the Mushroom Kingdom are here and ready to race. Great to see you again, guys."

"Thank you for having us, Lakitu." Mario replied.

"So, you been racing since the very first tournament and now, you made it once again. How does it feel to be racing together as brothers?" Lakitu asked Luigi with a smile.

"Well Lakitu, we love racing together because we share the same thing with each other." Luigi said, "Whether is saving Peach from the clutches of Bowser or fighting at the Glitz Pit against Rawk Hawk, we are always together no matter what happens. Right bro?"

"That's right, Luigi." Mario replied, "We are the Mario Brothers and we love to compete in various competitions including kart racing, tennis, basketball and more. We will always protect the Mushroom Kingdom whenever evil strikes. That is why we are a great team and we are brothers together forever."

As Mario heard those words, the crowd cheered as Mario and Luigi hug each other. Then Lakitu came to them and said, "Wow! Now that's what I like to call brotherly love! Well then, are you both ready to race?"

"Let's a-go!" Mario and Luigi replied at the same time.

"Alright then! Brothers... START YOUR ENGINES!"

With the words shouted, the engines turn on as the crowd cheered along with it. The race is about to begin as both brothers shook their hands. Then Mario said, "May the best brother win?"

"May the best brother win!" Luigi agreed as they entered their karts, waiting for the race to begin.

Lakitu came in with the starting signal on the fishing pole and said, "Well guys, here we are. The countdown is about to begin and before we do that, is there anything you would like to say to our viewing audience?"

Mario smiled and said, "Yes, I would like to tell you that we will be having a brand new Mario Kart 8 tournament next month!"

As Mario heard this, the crowd erupted in big cheers. Then Luigi said, "That's right, bro! We will have brand new races and all new surprises waiting in store for you and for the first time ever, we will have anti-gravity racing!"

"That's right Luigi! Also, we're bringing back 12-player racing and for the first time ever, the Koopalings are going to be here!" Mario added as the crowd cheered once again.

Then Luigi said, "You said it, bro. So pick up Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U on May 30 and get ready for even more Mario Kart racing with me, my bro and of course, the Koopalings!"

Mario agreed with him and they both said, "DON'T MISS IT!"

When the Mario Brothers are done, the crowd roared with excitement about this huge announcement. Lakitu agreed with them and said, "Wow, that is one huge announcement that you guys made and the crowd loved it! Well then, now that everything is out of the way, shall we proceed with the race?"

"Yes, please!" Luigi said to him.

"Then let's get down to the rules, shall we? Three laps for the both of you and there are no items in this race so, just cross the finish line to win. OK?" Lakitu asked them.

"OK!" Mario and Luigi agreed.

Lakitu smiled at them and said, "Alright then, you may begin racing on the green light and remember, have fun! And now ladies and gentlemen, the moment you've all been waiting for! It is officially time to start the race. Are you ready for the battle of the Mario Bros.?"

The crowd agreed as they cheered very loudly. Then Lakitu said, "Then without further ado, let the countdown... BEGIN!"

And then, Lakitu pressed the button the signal, which starts the light mechanism. The crowd grew silent as the first red light came on.

"3..."

Mario held on to the steering wheel as the second red light flashed.

"2..."

Luigi looked at the road as the third and final light flashed red on the signal.

"1..."

Both brothers placed their foot on the gas pedal, took one final deep breath and then...

The green light went off. It's go time as Lakitu and the crowd shouted the final word as one...

"GO!"

And then, the race has begun as Mario and Luigi took off at the same time. Lakitu saw it all and said, "And away they go as both brothers start the race off with a rocket start! This is going to be a great race, folks!"

The race went nice and smooth as both brothers handle every corner of the track and then, it is the third and final lap as Lakitu held up the Final Lap sign. He said, "This is it, ladies and gentlemen! The final lap of the race! Which brother will win? We'll find out shortly!"

As Mario and Luigi race to the finish line, they saw the crowd cheering. It was a fantastic race for them as both brothers cross the finish line, signaling the end of the race.

Lakitu waved the checkered flag and said, "It's a photo finish, folks! What a race!"

Just then, Mario and Luigi came out of the karts and Luigi said, "Great race, bro. You're one fast driver."

"Same to you, Luigi." Mario added as they shake their hands for good sportsmanship.

Lakitu came to them with the photo and said, "Attention, ladies and gentlemen! After reviewing this photo, I have made the announcement! So, we have a..."

The crowd grew very silent as Lakitu looked at the photo. Mario and Luigi held their breath and then...
