The parking garage track mentioned in the interview also has remnants left over. Oddly, the points for this seem to match up with Luigi Raceway, suggesting that it replaced TOWN eventually. There is also a TOWN_point file which contains data like enemy paths, item paths, and object placement. Oddly, it shows all the roads in it, rather than just the roads that were driveable.

It is referred to as TOWN internally, and seems to match the description by the developers of it being very large. The city track's model is located in TOWN_PK within the kimura archive, complete with all the textures. Unfortunately, it was a very large map, and it took too much time to race through.

At first, we thought it would be a nice, realistic track, and that it would be really fun, but when people actually played it the constant turning and turning as you went up quickly made them feel sick.

"There were a number of courses we had to drop, too. A developer interview in 1996 mentions two courses that were cut during development.
