Wizpig amulet

The Wizpig amulet is an item that is found in Diddy Kong Racing and its Nintendo DS remake. There is a total of four pieces of the amulet, with each piece being guarded by Tricky, Bluey, Bubbler, and Smokey, who were entrusted by Wizpig with the pieces of the amulet after he brainwashed them. One can be obtained by beating each boss in a race twice during the regular races and the Silver Coin races (or Balloon Touch Challenge in the DS remake).

When the player collects all the pieces of the Wizpig amulet, the Wizpig head at the island courtyard opens its mouth, and the player gains access to the first race against Wizpig.

There is a similar item called the T.T. amulet, which is also divided into four parts that the player must obtain in order to engage Wizpig in a final race in Future Fun Land.
