Mount Must Dash
Mount Must Dash, otherwise known as World 3-6, is the sixth course of World 3 in Super Mario 3D World. It is unlocked from the start, but can only be accessed by completing Pipeline Lagoon. This course is heavily inspired and is a reference to Super Mario Kart, particularly towards the Mario Circuit tracks from said game, with a cover version of the tracks' music. The "Must Dash" is a pun on "mustache".

A Warp Box is found at the end of the section, taking the player to the next area. Some Brick Blocks are found, one of which can become a Coin Box, and a slope with Para-Biddybuds follows. The Checkpoint Flag is found at the end of the slope.
The level continues up another slope with Dash Panels, leading to another Jump Panel and some Dash Panels on platforms between pits.
