Shortcuts on Icicle Valley Course

You’ll find a shortcut right near the beginning of the track on the first left turn. You’ll see there is a cave blocked by two signs.

Shortcut on Lost Palace Course

To get to this shortcut, you’ll find it after the big jump. There is a lone island that has a boost pad on it. After the big jump, make sure you land straight onto that island. It’ll allow you to jump over the island and to the track beyond it.

Shortcuts on Outer Forest Course

The shortcut on the Outer Forest track is found right after leaving the house. You’ll notice on the left turn you can go straight/leftish through the trees, where you’ll find a secret passage.

Shortcut on Ocean Ruin Course

#1 – You’ll find a shortcut right before the finish line. You’ll see it after the big jump out of the tube. It’s located after the cave when you go back on the docks before the end.

#2 – After the first left turn at the docks, signs will tell you to turn right. Instead keep going straight/leftish. You’ll then be able to do a jump that can save you a lot of time and turning.

# 3 – This shortcut is located on the final wooden pier. Before you go into the big building by turning right, head straight instead. This will allow you to skip the pier and gives a big shortcut.

Shortcut on Rampart Road Course

You’ll be led to this shortcut after taking the second jump. Turn right, then left. If you look around this left turn somewhere you’ll notice two arrows pointing left. Go through these to find the shortcut.

Shortcut on Rokkaku Hill Course

To reach this shortcut you’ll see that there is a u-shaped turn near the end of the track. Take the upper route there (get ready for a tight turn) and you’ll be able to take a good shortcut.

Shortcut on Thunder Deck Course

To reach this shortcut you’ll need to look around the first fork in the road. Head straight into the center of it of the fork. You’ll find that there’s a jump. Although in order to make the jump you’ll need some boost.
