Glitch
There is a glitch in the before-mentioned mission that allows the player to beat Koopa the Quick in 0 seconds. To do it, the player must get the Wing Cap and triple jump right in front of Koopa the Quick, but not too close. Then fly to the top of the mountain. Koopa the Quick will talk to Mario once he lands, though he is far away. Then the timer begins and ends at zero seconds. However Koopa the Quick never gets up there, so the star can't be obtained that way.

Hey, Mario! It is true that you beat the the Big Bob-omb? Cool! You must be strong. And pretty fast. So, how fast are you, anyway? Fast enough to beat me... Koopa the quick? I don't think so. just try me. How about a race to the mountaintop, where the big bomb-omb was? Waddya say? When i say GO let the race begin!
