What game modes can you think of for a new mario kart game?

Here are some of mine:
1 Player Modes:
1) Grand Prix
--50cc
--100cc
--150cc
--200cc
2) Trial
3) Battle (with 1-3 computer-controlled karts; see all battle mode descriptions below)
4) Event Races
--100 Lap Race (Basically you do a course like Baby Park and do 100 Laps!
--Bobomb Blowout (You play a series of 4 randomly selected courses with 7 other karts and basically tons of bobombs appear throughout the race on the course!) Mad Mayhem!
--Coin Collectors (You choose a cup & in order to advance from one course to the next, you must find all coins & then place in the top 3)


2-4 Player Modes
1) Grand Prix
--50cc
--100cc
--150cc
--200cc
2) Battle (Can be 1-4 players, with any combination of humans & computers, except with 1 human, you must of course choose to have at least 1 other computer kart)
--Balloon Battle
--Balloon Theft (Basically in this mode, each player has only 1 balloon. You can get a mushroom, star, triple mushrooms, or golden mushroom. The goal is to use such items & find other players and crash into them to steal their one balloon, the idea is to be the first to have the balloons of all players, so you'll have one of each color at the end)
--Shine Steal
--Bobomb Brawl
--Coin Collectors (Find coins and then bring them to your designated area on the screen--you can carry up to 5 for each player but if one player has just at least one coin, he can't pick up items. Hitting people will make players drop the coins they are carrying. First to 10, 20, 50, or 100!)
--Battle Cups (Choose among like 3 or 4 different cups & play a series of 4 battle games in a row to see who gets the most total points, based on ranking)

Additional Characters: [special item]
1) Boo (regular boo): [Plunder chest] steals the best of all items that are available to steal (selects from all currently carried items)
2) MagiKoopa: [Has two: Fire & Ice] The Fire one is just a standing flame that causes people to burn out when ran over like Mario's fireball. The Ice one causes people to stop immediately upon impact and then freeze into an icycle like running into a freezie.

Options: (found in options menu)
1) Battle Map: [Show] [Hide] (Shows or hides the battle map in the battle modes)
2) Race Map: [Show] [Hide] (Shows or hides the map during all races)
3) Places: [Show] [Hide] (shows or hides your current place during a race, otherwise a ? mark would be shown like in Yoshi's valley for MK64)
4) Mode: [Double Dash!!] [Classic] (Choose which mode; DD!! means you have two players in a kart, like it is now, or class mode means you have singles only)
