By creating a ghost, you can prevent two of the thwomps from chasing you. To create the ghost:
# Use all 3 shrooms to reach the large thwomp room as fast as possible.

# After going around the left-hand corner, drive straight into the room until you reach the wall.

# 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.

# Carefully finish the race without hitting any more thwomps or falling off the track, to create a ghost (and save the ghost if you have a Controller Pak).

*: '''Faster and harder strat:''' It's slightly faster to go inside the bush, but hard to do it consistently.

* After the corner, do an SSMT almost immediately, and aim in between the two thwomps at the end of the room.
* After the corner, do a right-facing SSMT almost immediately, and aim in between the two thwomps at the end of the room.
* MT between the two thwomps. Start holding right shortly before reaching the thwomps (after charging the MT), and release the MT and start turning right as soon as possible as you pass between the thwomps.

*: '''Slower strat:''' If you have trouble going between the thwomps, then leave out the SSMT. If you still can't go between the thwomps, then go to the left of both thwomps. Like the faster strat, start pressing right shortly before reaching the thwomps, and release the MT as soon as possible. Only use this strat if both thwomps are down.

* Do a short slide around the corner, and shroom as you reach the grass. Continue the rest of the lap as normal.

*: '''Common mistake:''' Many people start this slide too early. It does make it easier to control, but it also slows you down.

* '''Shroom #1:''' Same as the 3lap shroom on lap 2.
* '''Shroom #3:''' Start a shroomslide about .1-.2 before the end of the bridge. Like the 3lap, you want to start out wide, and then hold left until you reach the point where you're almost touching the inside wall. The shroom should wear off at about this point. Then release the MT and continue as normal.
