	~~''TODO: Will write later~~. ~~ran~~ out of ~~steam~~ for ~~today :(''~~		To begin the race, a custom [[start slide]] is performed which allows you to move further horizontally than usual (typical start slides optimize for forward movement). Being further to the right sets up a good angle for a [[Drift#Clip drift \| clip drift]] off the right fence, which [[Drift#Chain drift \| chains]] into another drift. Exiting the second drift, a [[Hop#Quick hop \| quick hop]] is used to realign towards the bottom of the downhill, as you fall off the track, skipping the turn. You land from the turnskip on the boost panel, which lets you extend your wheelie time on the uphill slightly (while also giving you a speed boost). Before the wheelie drops, the first mushroom is used, which prevents you from driving this section under wheelie speed.

			A [[miniturbo]] is charged during the drift around the next turn, and released when the boost runs out. On the following turn, the trickable track edge is used to cut the turn, and upon landing from the trick, a [[Trick#Hop trick \| hop trick]] is used to get even more boost. When entering the cave, a [[bat clip]] is performed to [[Wheelie#Rehop \| rehop]] while retaining top speed. The following turn is skipped similarly to the first downhill. For the boost ramp, a [[Trick#Drift trick \| drift trick]] is performed which lands you directly on the minecart track.

			An [[Drift#Edge drift \| edge drift]] is used on the very soft next turn. Then, instead of taking the shortcut path (which is faster under normal circumstances), a sliver of non-sticky road is used to [[Sticky road#Detach \| detach]] from the [[sticky road]] and avoid the long downhill/uphill path, making it faster. A [[Hop#Spin hop \| spin hop]] is used to get onto the sliver, a wheelie is used during the detach, and a slip drift is used upon landing to realign for the last turn.

			Exactly the same strategies are used on laps 2 and 3, except for the lap 3 bat clip, where a slip drift is used due to the position of the bats making a rehop impossible/slower.

	~~''TODO: Will write later~~.''		Just prior to finishing lap 1, a trick is performed off the halfpipe; its boost carrying into the next lap. From here, many incorrect or outdated strategies are used. On the first turn, a mushroom is used to perform the turnskip instead of it being done shroomless. At the main shroomspot, a mushroom is not even used. At the bats, a mushroom is used to charge a miniturbo during a drift instead of performing a bat clip. Most notably, the shortcut path is not taken, and the third mushroom is used to charge another miniturbo during a drift leading into that turn.

Wario's Gold Mine has a 3lap viable [[ultra shortcut]], and currently benefits from [[Delayed lap count | delayed lap counts]],[[Wallclip | wallclips]], [[superhopping]], and [[supersliding]] in both 3lap and flap categories. Hence, it has three 3lap and three flap categories. However, neither a NU 3lap nor NU flap TAS exist, so the NG 3lap and NG flap are those records respectively for the time being.

The current strategy for UR 3lap is to perform the ultra shortcut. This is done with a mushroom each lap to hop off the track and [[OOB bounce#OOB hop | OOB hop]] off the nearest warp pipe up under the bridge. From there, you drive into the tunnel to hit the last KCP, then perform a [[Standstill miniturbo#Wall bonk SSMT | wall bonk SSMT]] to turn around and accelerate. While accelerating, [[wiggle strat]] is used. Finally, a slip drift is done to charge a [[miniturbo]], which allows for a [[Hop#Spin hop | spin hop]] over the last turn that itself turns into another miniturbo, followed by another wall bonk SSMT (this time off the right side finish pole). These strategies are repeated on laps 2 and 3, with the exception of lap 3 not featuring the slip drift, and simply just having a single drift into the last turn.

=== Unrestricted Flap ===
:''Video: [https://youtu.be/zuLmq2F1vrg?feature=shared&t=82 7.218 by Monster (2023)]''
The current strategy for the UR flap is to perform the ultra shortcut. The premise of the route is to get into a superslide state in the second half of the lap, build up enough EV to perform a delayed lap count shroomless, get into another superslide state in the first half of the lap, build up enough EV to enter the lap and perform the pole clip variant of the ultra with 1 mushroom, hit the last KCP, and then use two mushrooms to reach the finish line.

Although it would seem like the choice for this is [[Vehicles#Wario Bike | Wario Bike]] for [[Supersliding#Wario bike superslide | WBSS]], the Wario Bike cannot get past the last turn in a superslide state. Even though [[Vehicles#Spear | Spear]] has a method to perform the delayed lap count shroomless which avoids the unstable last turn level drop in a superslide, ''and'' it can get past the unstable first turn level drop in a superslide, it cannot do so without sacrificing the approach angle and EV necessary to perform the pole clip with 1 mushroom. So, [[Vehicles#Dolphin Dasher | Dolphin Dasher]] is used as the fastest vehicle able to do so (the only other being [[Vehicles#Jet Bubble | Jet Bubble]], which has the same speed but worse drift).

In order to get into a superslide state, you must trick off the zipper behind the finish line and [[Rapid-fire hop abuse | RFH]] towards the edge of the track, aiming underneath the bridge onto the nearest pipe. As with the UR 3lap, an OOB hop is sufficient to get up to the bridge, and the superslide state is entered. From here, you build EV and reverse to navigate around the last turn, ejecting around the finish line onto the outside of the gray fence. From here, you can seam ride until starting the second superslide from the top of the hill all the way backwards to the finish line, where the pole clip is performed with 1 mushroom as planned. The rest of the lap is basically a lap of the UR 3lap with an extra 2 mushrooms for faster acceleration and higher top speed.

=== No Glitch 3lap ===
