Found out about this from MKWii...
Forget about getting a mushroom in 1st place. Only on 2nd place and lower...

When you think about it, this is a very risky tactic. You basically leave yourself open to get hit by anyone that's right behind you! It's a 50/50 risk and reward!

Your chance will be even greater if you already have an item like a Banana protecting your arse while in 2nd place, someone else knocks out the one in front of you just after you pass an item-block to acquire a mushroom (even less of a chance) and take the lead! But scenario rarely happens, at least for me. ;)


Yeah that's how I did it one time. Triple green shell out plus mushroom in reserve! This other time I only had triple mushroom, but figured I could get right back into it if I got hit by red shell. Oh, and the latest dodge was the pro-est! Someone got a blue shell so everyone stopped, then I go past them but stop before a gliding ramp as the blue shell was coming, then I avoided it and continued on while many others got caught in the blast!
