A '''ghost''' is the recording of a player's driving performance in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. The concept of ghosts has appeared in most games in the series. Ghost drivers appear as semi-transparent characters and behave as players who used them did while achieving a high score. These drivers cannot be touched and pass through [[kart]]s and obstacles. Driving against one's own ghost enables a player to directly compete against their own record. Ghost data can be recorded only in [[Mario Kart (series)#Modes of play|Time Trial]] mode; recording this data may be impossible in races that are too long in some games due to memory limitations. | A '''ghost''' is the recording of a player's driving performance in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series.
