Test Course 4, however, does have 1×1 dash tiles, and they don't use any part of the Kirby Bowl dash tile graphics. Test Course 9's dash tiles don't seem suited for this purpose, plus they're using the 2×2 tile graphics instead of the 1×1 graphic of Special Tee Shot, so this rules Test Course 9 out. Once the ball hits a stage border or an obstacle, the ball stops and the player regains control. While boosted, the ball can also climb up slopes and walls. The dash tiles in Special Tee Shot don't just speed the ball up, but force the ball in a certain direction at top speed and the player loses control of the ball. Test Courses 6 and 8 have warp tiles, so they can't be from Special Tee Shot, whereas Test Course 7 is an early build of a hole found only in Kirby Bowl. This helps to rule out certain test maps as Special Tee Shot leftovers.
