Overview
An Intermezzo is a weekly custom track distribution created by Wiimm to test all new and updated tracks offline and online. The first Intermezzo was released on 2012-10-22 and contained 19 tracks. From the beginning, item cheats were allowed to enable a more efficient way of testing tracks. As of September 2015, Intermezzos contained a built-in item cheat for the Wii Remote + Nunchuk and GameCube controllers.
An Intermezzo will usually be created every Tuesday. Wiimm implemented a generator that creates a fully automated Intermezzo in only a few minutes, optional with CT-CODE or LE-CODE. It is usually played online the following Wednesday after a Wiimms Mario Kart Fun tournament. Occasionally, an additional Intermezzo for the weekend will be created. Between 2012 to 2018, nearly all new tracks in Wiimm's CT archive were tested by a tester team using an Intermezzo. Since Fall 2018, only tracks that are either candidates for Wiimms Mario Kart Fun or contain interesting features will be added to an Intermezzo.
History
As of November 2013, each public Intermezzo will be announced at wii-homebrew.com. Intermezzos from previous weeks are available at download.wiimm.de.
As of April 2019, Intermezzos became the main LE-CODE testing distribution. Each installment contains 10 custom battle arenas and new custom tracks from the previous week.
As of January 2020, all new tracks and updates are included again. If not included for some reason, the prefix "+N" (compare table below) is used. You can request older track versions at the talk page.
Track Name Prefixes
Most track names begin with a plus sign followed by an optional letter. This divides tracks into categories:
| Prefix | Description |

| + | New track and candidate for Wiimms Mario Kart Fun. |
| +U | Update of a track already included in Wiimms Mario Kart Fun. |
| +V | Update of a new track already accepted for Wiimms Mario Kart Fun. |

| +T | Track that the tester team should watch. |
| +X or +Y | Track with special features that the Wiimms Mario Kart Fun tester team will review. |
| +N | New track provided to external users. Ignored by Wiimms Mario Kart Fun tester team. |
| +1 | Single lap variant of a track created for testing. |
