Creating the ghost

By creating a ghost, you can prevent two of the thwomps from chasing you. To create the thwomp:

  1. Use all 3 shrooms to reach the large thwomp room as fast as possible.
  2. After going around the left-hand corner, drive straight into the room until you reach the wall.
  3. Turn around and position yourself as shown in the picture. Within a few seconds, the thwomps will begin moving back and forth and stomping the ground within that small part of the room.
    • If the thwomps close their eyes and stop moving, it means you are too far away. If this happens, start over and try again.
  4. Wait until the time that you would normally pass this point on lap 3 (~1:25 at WR pace).
  5. Carefully finish the race to create a ghost.
