Well actually, there is a certain amount of skill involved. My tactic is this:

1. Do the bombing training mission.
2. Start the womp rat mission.
3. Circle the pack a few times so they're all in the middle, more or less.
4. Then use your bombs to take out as many as possible.

I can't remember my top score but I think it was around 80.

OK on your British Wave Race do you have Advanced difficulty instead of Expert? Anyway my time for lost temple lagoon on Expert/Advanced is 1'38'113 and best lap is 0'31'494.

I round them all up into the centre before i trigger the start of the task. You can easily get 80 womp rats in the time you are given.

I use the control stick fot THPS3 because the grooves make it easier and more precise. So many people think that the control stick is for n00bs, but it is actually better on the Gamecube than using the dpad...

Womp Rat hunting is so random it is rubbish. The best results come from just shooting randomly while swinging the stick about.

COntorls on Tony Hawks on GC are easy, at first the different sized buttons took a bit of getting used to but the D Pad is fine I don't really know why people complain. The only problems you have with it is when you're doing precise button presses like on Rogue Leader where you order your wing men about, I found occasionally that they didn't do what I wanted, other than that it's fine.

Most games don't use D Pad nowadays anyway, only reason it's used so much on PS2 is cause the sticks are so feckin awkward to use.

Come on peoples why don't you like these challenges!? I'll try the Wave Race one (I assume you mean Expert difficulty).
Anyway how about a Rouge Leader challenge. I have one. How many Womp Rats can you shoot in the training level.Any time of day will do. My best is 81.

Well, the D-Pad isn't in the right place on the GameCube for that kind of play so we can expect to see a lot less awkward controls.

For Wave Race... Advancded?
And mine prettty much failed as well.

Yeah, one of about 3 games ever released that actually used the d-pad :O)
