Koopa the Quick challenging Mario to a race.

Koopa the Quick is a giant Koopa Troopa that Mario must race twice for Power Stars in Super Mario 64. He also appears in Super Mario 64 DS. According to what he says, his home, which fits his size, is the Huge Island. The secret to his speed in Tiny-Huge Island is his Koopa Mach 1 Sprint shoes and in Super Mario 64 DS they are Supa Troopa Koopa sneakers (from the Shells Inc co.), which he spent all his cash on.

Il Piantissimo, a foot-racer in Super Mario Sunshine, plays a similar role to Koopa the Quick except Mario had to race him in most levels and that Piantissimo ran and jumped the same way Mario does. Later in Super Mario Galaxy, Spooky Speedster and Cosmic Mario both get a similar role to Koopa the Quick and Il Piantissimo.
