Fly with the car!
OK here is what u do to make a car fly, and it should get u in first place. for best resalts be pipsy, diddy kong, konker, or timber. Go to the frosty village level. When your rounding the corner get a blue ballon(rocket fule) and when u see the boost just run over it WITHOUT HITTING A! if you are hitting A wile crossing the boost it WILL NOT WORK. So cross the boost without hitting A and you shold get a green flame then once your passing the top of the hill it Z and you should fly.
