One customer, who did not want her name to be used, told the event was “extremely over-priced and over-promised”. The website stresses that “we are not associated with Nintendo or Mario Kart”. The Mushroom Racing website says included in the ticket price - $85 to $90 plus a $15 “fee” and GST - is “costume hire (characters)”, “snack (mushroom-style appetiser)”, “CBD pick up and drop off”, “20 laps”, “DJ and after-party”, “games room activities and more”. Disaster of an event.” Another wrote, “If you have a ticket for the coming month get a refund ASAP. “Absolute rip-off,” one reviewer wrote on TripAdvisor.
