Missions: Level 1

[Grooms]

The highest rank you can get on missions is 3 stars. For a lot of these, it seems almost impossible to manage.

For the entire time I've had this game (since it came out) I've never been able to get 3 stars on Level 1, mission 1-8. No matter how fast I seem to go, I always only get away with 2. It's so frustrating. Has anyone else managed to get 3 stars on this mission?

Wow, after I beat all of the classes, I'll have to work on missions Sounds challenging...

TRIUMPH! After racing a staff ghost on Mario Circuit 1 (SNES), I learned the best way to get around the track. So I tried mission 1-8 with this new found knowledge and earned 3 stars. Now to work on all the rest.

Hmm...I seem to be having a problem on 1-8 as well. Like you said...2 stars is rewarded even when you seem to have a flawless lap. Mission 1-4 (5 Cheep Cheeps) gave me a bit of a problem as well, but I managed to collect all three stars. I will keep trying Mission 1-8 to see if I can figure the pattern out.

If I can't figure it out soon, I might do what you did

[mignelli]

the mission mode is awsome. I got a one star on each one

[NintendoNerds]

Grooms, I haven't been able to figue out the trick for 1-8. Would you mind telling me the shortcut to this Mission?

si it the ghost? theres a secret way i think you need to get 3 stars, NN. if i remember the SNES version right.

[NintendoNerds]

Grooms, could you reveal your secret to getting 3 stars for Mission 1-8? I was never able to figure it out. I am assuming you use a Mushroom to take a shortcut through the grass or something,,,not sure where though.
