A '''Super Thwomp''' (also called a '''Rainbow Thwomp''') is a rainbow variety of a [[Thwomp]] that appears to be enhanced by a [[Starman]]. They appear on the [[Rainbow Road (SNES)|SNES Rainbow Road]] in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' as well as the course's remakes in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. UnlikeDue to their powers, unlike a regular Thwomp, Super Thwomps can knock out players who simply collide with them and can make the track wobble.
 
==History==
 
===''Super Mario Kart''===

Super Thwomps first appear in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' where they wobble the track upon landing. They only appear in [[Rainbow Road (SNES)|Rainbow Road]] and unlike standard Thwomps can actually knock over racers who collide with them.
 
===''Mario Kart 7''===
Super Thwomps reappear in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' in the game's remake of SNES Rainbow Road. Unlike their previous appearance however, the Super Thwomps have now been given a Rainbow appearance to distinguish them from a standard Thwomp. They can also flip players over more intensely. Players can also preform tricks on the track wobbles.
 
===''Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''===
[[Image:Thwomp Rainbow.png|thumb|rightleft|130px|A pretty-yet-deadly Super Thwomp on [[Rainbow Road (SNES)|SNES Rainbow Road]].]]
Super Thwomps reappear in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' in their remake of SNES Rainbow Road found in the DLC's [[Triforce Cup]] however, the Super Thwomps this time can cause more intense wobbles and the effects of being squished also slow any racers down further.
