HELP!!! EMERALD CUP - GREEN PLANT- MASTER

Hey guys hope your having a blast playing this game, I know I am.
I have won Master on all the cups except for the Emerald Cup. I use the White Cat and on the first race I place in the top five and I do fairly well on the other races. My pain is the Green Plant. It has cost me the championship on this cup everytime. I can place no higher than 15th. ( and that is with alittle luck and flat out open)
To anyone that has beat this race on master. What machince do you use? Where do you boost? Where do you set back and save your boost? Is there a trick to the tunnel maybe or the straight where the tube threads in and out of the road? Maybe the nasty bend right before the finish line? Any advice would be great and I'll be more than happy to give advice on the other cups
Thanks for you time.

Finishing 15th on a race shouldn't mean the end of your challenge. If you come in first on the other tracks or if you take out your rival once or twice you can afford to lay back and even come in last ( which I usually do on the fifth track on Emerald and Diamond to play it safe , already had over 100 points lead )
On Green Plant I boost a lot at the start of the race almost contiously untill the glass tunnel. . no boosting in there and just going smoothly though the middle.. then start boosting again when you reach the two refillers in the middle continously again for the rest of the lap.
Zigzag carefully left-right bewteen the intersecting tunnel sections and hit every boost arrows without touching the rail cos this will kill your speed. Also boost a lot near the end just before the last small tunnel , you should make a small jump here and hopefully land right into the refil zone.
Easy enough, no matter what the dificulty setting

Thanks for the advice and quick response 
I finally beat it using the tips you gave me. boosting before the tunnel and coasting inside was the trick.
Thanks again
