Yoshi stealing Baby Peach's place by Slipstreaming in Mario Kart Wii.

Slipstreaming (also known as Drafting) is a technique often used in the Mario Kart series. It is present in Mario Kart 64, Mario Kart DS, Mario Kart Wii, Mario Kart 7, and Mario Kart 8. If a player trails behind another racer for a certain period of time, the player's kart, bike, or ATV receives a temporary speed boost. This can be used to ram the vehicle the player is slipstreaming behind and race ahead into a higher place. Slipstreaming is also useful when another player has been shrunk by a Thunderbolt or Lightning Cloud.
