The special value is defined in a table at 808c9a58 (PAL). Its meaning is unknown. Maybe something like special slot effects in VS?
  
The arena Slots are arranged into 2 cups with 5 arenas each.
+
There are 5 other slots reserved for Galaxy Colosseum and the winning/losing scenes.

Most tracks will run on all Slots, with exceptions of '''Slots [[#Slot 4.2 (Moonview Highway)|4.2]]''', '''[[#Slot 6.1 (N64 Sherbet Land)|6.1]]''' and '''[[#Slot 6.2 (GBA Shy Guy Beach)|6.2]]'''. Additionally, some tracks will only run at '''Slots [[#Slot 3.1 (Daisy Circuit)|3.1]]''' and '''[[#Slot 7.1 (DS Desert Hills)|7.1]]'''. Here are the rules for these Special Slots:

Most tracks run on all slots, with exceptions of '''slots [[#Slot 4.2 (Moonview Highway)|4.2]]''', '''[[#Slot 6.1 (N64 Sherbet Land)|6.1]]''' and '''[[#Slot 6.2 (GBA Shy Guy Beach)|6.2]]'''; additionally, some tracks only run at '''slots [[#Slot 3.1 (Daisy Circuit)|3.1]]''', '''[[#Slot 5.3 (SNES Ghost Valley 2)|5.3]]''' and '''[[#Slot 7.1 (DS Desert Hills)|7.1]]'''. Here are the rules for these special slots:
 +
* Tracks can only run on '''slot 4.2''' if they have at least one instance of {{obj-ref|kart_truck car_body|'''kart_truck''' and '''car_body'''}}, and have materials with specific names in the ''course_model.brres''. ('''[[#4.2|More...]]''')
 +
* Tracks can only run on '''slot 6.1''' if {{obj-ref|ice.brres}} is present; furthermore this object is necessary to activate the [[KCL flag#Fall Boundary (0x10)|icy water fall boundary]] flag, which only works at this slot.
 +
* Tracks can only run on '''slot 6.2''' if {{obj-ref|HeyhoShipGBA}} is used; also objects {{obj-ref|HeyhoShipGBA}} and {{obj-ref|HeyhoBallGBA}} only work on this slot.
 +
* Tracks using objects {{obj-ref|sunDS FireSnake pylon01|sunDS, FireSnake or pylon01}} only work on '''slots 3.1''' and '''7.1'''.
 +
* The object {{obj-ref|poihana}} sometimes doesn't work on '''slot [[Slot#Slot_5.1_.28GCN_Peach_Beach.29|5.1]]'''; curiously, the object is used on this slot by Nintendo.
 +
* Tracks using objects {{obj-ref|obakeblockSFC obakeblock2SFC obakeblock3SFC|obakeblockSFC, obakeblock2SFC and obakeblock3SFC}} only work on '''slot 5.3''' if these objects are intended with fall animation, but here they are not scalable; on all other slots these objects can be scaled but they are unsolid and without animation. [[Wiimms SZS Tools]] use them to make item and enemy routes visible during gameplay or to mark positions.
 +
* All other slots are different for [[KCL flag#Sound Trigger (0x18)|KCL Sound Triggers]], particular sounds or GFX for [[KCL flag]]s or what effects they give to tracks.
  
* Tracks can run on '''Slot 4.2''' only if they have at least one [http://szs.wiimm.de/cgi/mkw/object?query=0xd0+0xd1+0xde#res truck, car, or bomb car] and have the special [[MDL0]] from the original track containing '''polygon11''' and '''polygon60'''.
+
=== Slot Expansion ===
* Tracks will run on '''Slot 6.1''' only if the sub file '''ice.brres''' is inserted. Furthermore, this sub file is necessary to activate the '''[[KCL flag]] 0x10 with variant 003 (0x70)''', or the game will freeze.
 
* Tracks using [[Object|Objects]] [http://szs.wiimm.de/cgi/mkw/object?query=heyhoshipgba#res HeyhoShipGBA] or [http://szs.wiimm.de/cgi/mkw/object?query=heyhoballgba#res HeyhoBallGBA] will only run on '''Slot 6.2''' and they must use [http://szs.wiimm.de/cgi/mkw/object?query=heyhoshipgba#res HeyhoShipGBA] with a valid route to run.
 
* Tracks using Objects [http://szs.wiimm.de/cgi/mkw/object?query=0x72#res sunDS] or [http://szs.wiimm.de/cgi/mkw/object?query=0x144#res pylon01] will only run on '''Slot 3.1''' and '''7.1'''.
 
* Some tracks using object [http://szs.wiimm.de/cgi/mkw/track-ref/object/poihana#info poihana] (Cataquacks from GCN Peach Beach), cannot run on '''Slot 5.1'''. Curiously, the object is used on this Slot by Nintendo.
 
* All other Slots are different for [[KCL flag#Sound Trigger (0x18)|KCL Sound Triggers]], particular sounds or GFX for [[KCL flag]]s, or what effects they give to tracks.
 
 
 
===Slot Expansion===
 
 
It is possible to expand the track selection list to include more slots. It should be noted that new slots have no unique slot features, but can use special slot effects and music slots.

Special Slots

Most tracks run on all slots, with exceptions of slots 4.2, 6.1 and 6.2; additionally, some tracks only run at slots 3.1, 5.3 and 7.1. Here are the rules for these special slots:

  • Tracks can only run on slot 4.2 if they have at least one instance of kart_truck and car_body, and have materials with specific names in the course_model.brres. (More...)
  • Tracks can only run on slot 6.1 if ice.brres is present; furthermore this object is necessary to activate the icy water fall boundary flag, which only works at this slot.
  • Tracks can only run on slot 6.2 if HeyhoShipGBA is used; also objects HeyhoShipGBA and HeyhoBallGBA only work on this slot.
  • Tracks using objects sunDS, FireSnake or pylon01 only work on slots 3.1 and 7.1.
  • The object poihana sometimes doesn't work on slot 5.1; curiously, the object is used on this slot by Nintendo.
  • Tracks using objects obakeblockSFC, obakeblock2SFC and obakeblock3SFC only work on slot 5.3 if these objects are intended with fall animation, but here they are not scalable; on all other slots these objects can be scaled but they are unsolid and without animation. Wiimms SZS Tools use them to make item and enemy routes visible during gameplay or to mark positions.
  • All other slots are different for KCL Sound Triggers, particular sounds or GFX for KCL flags or what effects they give to tracks.

Slot Expansion

It is possible to expand the track selection list to include more slots. It should be noted that new slots have no unique slot features, but can use special slot effects and music slots.

Unique and Special Slot Features

Slot 1.1 (Luigi Circuit)
