A Star will usually accomplish this[[/labelnote]]

** Choco Mountain, and mostly due to the very last part with a set of three hills before the finish line. Using a Mushroom incorrectly or getting hit by something like a Red Shell can spell the difference between first place and fifth place (being in any place below fourth meant you would have to try the track again), especially in the final lap.
