Goron Racetrack
The Goron Racetrack is a location found within Goron Village of Majora's Mask. It is situated on the path to Goron Village to the left as Link enters. The Goron Racetrack is a tradition held every spring, and due to the huge boulder that blocks the way, the Gorons is unable to race.[1][2] The huge boulder can only be destroyed with the Powder Keg.[3]
Mini Game
Once Link has defeated the evil within Snowhead Temple, the harsh winter lifts and spring takes over, the Goron Elder's Son also returns to his normal state.[4]This means that the racetrack is open for business, however a large boulder blocks the way. Link gets a Powder Keg from the Goron Powder Keg Shop and destroys the boulder before the fuse blows. This allows Link access to the Racetrack, where he speaks to the Goron Elder's Son to start the race.
This mini game itself doesn't cost any Rupees, it only requires Link to be in Goron Form and for the region to be in spring. Before the race starts, the Gorons prepare stretching up for the race.{{Ref|MM|5689|[[Goron Elder}} This race requires Link using the Goron Mask to roll at high speeds, while racing, Link can roll into the Magic Jars, which fills up his magic metre. Goron Link must also watch out for the many obstacles on the racetrack including; Bomb Flowers, small trees and even opposing Gorons. When Link has taken the first place, he is rewarded with Gold Dust from the Goron Elder's Son, as a prize from the Goron Elder himself. The Gold Dust can be used to forge the Razor Sword into the Gilded Sword at the Mountain Smithy.[5]
