Super Cheap Shortcut in Frappe Snowland !
This is the best shortcut ever! After you read this, you can surprise your friends with an awesome shortcut! Near the end of the track you will enter a valley of ice mountains. After that is a bridge leading to the finish. BEFORE you touch the ice ground, jump from the bridge onto the snow(sideline). Continue AROUND the finish (when you pass the finish you will be on your second lap) and swerve to the left or right depending on which side you jumped on. When you pass the "out of bounds" area, the lakitu will place you before the finish line. Go through it and you will be on your third lap! This saves about one minute of time! If you miss the jump, try again or do it again at the end of the second lap.
Shortcut in Kalamari Desert
To do this shortcut you must have either a star or golden mushroom. Enter on the second railway track and use your star or mushroom befor you enter the tunnel. You will be way ahead of everyone else.
Mario Raceway shortcut
Around the fourth turn on this track, you should notice a brick wall on the right. This shortcut only works if you have a mushroom. First of all, before you turn, go up the hill a little bit. Then drive toward the wall. Just before you go onto the road, hit Z. And just before you fly off the road, jump. If you timed it all right, and you drove to the right spot towards the wall, you should make the jump over the wall and shave a few seconds off of your time! Trust me, this takes time and practice, it's tuff!
Shortcut
On Kalimari Desert, turn left onto the second set of train tracks that you cross. Make sure you have a SUPER STAR, or this trick will not work. When you come to the tunel, hit the trigger(z) just before you enter the tunnel. Some time after you have entered the tunnel, it should tell you that you are on the next lap! Now get back off the tracks just after the tunnel, and if you were close enough, you should be in first place!
