So we mentioned that there will be a GameStop sponsored Mario Kart 8 themed car driven by Matt Kenseth at the Charlotte Speedway NASCAR races this weekend? Well, there was! Check out the photos of the MK8 presence at the event below. Alternatively if you don't enjoy Nascar or Mario Kart 8 and would prefer a Mario slot game you can take a look at the big jackpots available at Royal Vegas casino.

5 days to go now til MK8; start revving those engines, and more importantly register for our Mario Kart 8 tournament on the forum. In the mean time Royal vegas online casino has some great themed slots, so check them out if you get chance :)
You should also check out our MK8 character guide if you haven't decided who you want to race as yet! Personally I've always been a fan of Koopa Troopa, I'm still angry about Wario stealing his kart in MK64.
