Silence is a course originating from F-Zero, serving as the fifth and final course of the Knight Cup. It is located on the planet of the same name. It is a medium-sized track with a lot of sharp corners, a Jump Plate, and a shortcut filled with mines. It has re-appeared several times throughout the series.

BS F-Zero Grand Prix

Silence re-appears in BS F-Zero Grand Prix largely unchanged from its original appearance. Its soundtrack is replaced with commentary about the racer's kart selection when playing in Practice mode. Only the second course appears in BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2.

F-Zero: GP Legend

Silence appears once more in F-Zero: GP Legend, as the third track of the Platinum Cup. While slightly scaled down in width, it is otherwise generally unchanged in layout. The section with mines increases from six to twenty. The planet itself appears more mechanized than prior versions.

F-Zero 99

Silence's latest appearance is in F-Zero 99, reprising its role as the final course of the Knight League. While slightly widened to accommodate for the extra racers, this track features some of the fewest changes of any F-Zero 99 track. In addition to its standard appearance, Silence also has a Mirror counterpart and a Frozen counterpart. The Mirror track changes the position of the mines to be diagonal rows instead of parallel lines, as well as adding more towards the end of the track. It also adds two new ramps over corners and a Dash Zone before the splitting paths. The Frozen variant has less traction at the northern and southern most ends of the track.

A very similar course to Silence appears in F-Zero Climax, erroneously titled Silence II. Its layout is mostly the same as the original Silence, with an extra bend towards the beginning to mirror the split path with the mines.
