Wuhu Loop[edit]
Unlike most courses in Mario Kart history, Wuhu Island Loop requires the player to make a single lap around a three part course, though each part is called a lap in game. Make sure not to hit any of the NPC cars driving along the road.
Shortcuts[edit]
There are various ramps in the grass. Use mushrooms to take advantage of them and bypass the main traffic.
During the second lap, take the path through the mountain to the right to reach a boost pad. This will allow you to glide ahead.
During the third lap, one can take the dirt road to the right and glide much of the distance towards the finish line. This may be a good way to avoid some of the traffic of the main road.
Mario Circuit[edit]
Use the long curves early in the course to boost.
Shortcuts[edit]
Music Park[edit]
Be careful when turning on the keyboards; there is no barrier to prevent you from falling down.
Shortcuts[edit]
Use the ramp after the two piranha plants if you have a boosting item.
Rock Rock Mountain[edit]
Watch out for the bats as you enter the cave. After driving off the giant cliff, you may be able to catch a thermal from one of the pipes, allowing you to stay airborne for longer.
Shortcuts[edit]
If you have a boost item after the second big jump, use it to glide over the finish line and cut over the turn ahead.
