Rickety Race (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)
This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed by February 9, 2010.
Template:Level Rickety Race is the twentieth level of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest for the Super Nintendo, as well as the seventeenth level in Donkey Kong Land 2, a similar game for the Game Boy system. It is the fourth area of Krazy Kremland.
This is the second roller coaster level in the games. It's unique feature is the ability for the heroes to race nine Klanks to the finish, although this is completely optional, as they may just take their time through. Every time the Kongs defeat a Klank, though, they'll receive a prize. The Klank in first has a DK Coin, so the Kongs must reach him before he gets to the finish first. There is also a hidden Plus Barrel in Diddy's Kong Quest that the monkeys can use to increase their speed if the player holds left as the race starts. This will make the race much easier.

Bonus Level(s)
At the beginning of the level, the heroes should use the Team Up move to throw a monkey upwards onto the above ledges. When they are at the top, Dixie Kong should be used to flutter across a large gap to a small tunnel. It will take them to a Bonus Level, where the Kongs must ride on a Skull Cart at high speed. They need to defeat several Klanks, without falling off the stage. If they beat enough enemies, the Kremkoin should appear at the end of the level.
DK Coin
To get the DK Coin, the Kongs must finish the race in first place. There are nine Klanks they need to get ahead of before the end of the level. Once the final enemy is defeated, the coin will be collected automatically.
Golden Feather (GBA Only)
At some point on the track, the monkeys will go into a small tunnel. When they are in here, they must quickly jump up in the air. With the correct timing, they should grab the Golden Feather.
Donkey Kong Land 2
It should be noted that there is no Bonus Level in Donkey Kong Land 2's Rickety Race.
DK Coin
The DK Coin for this level can be found almost exactly how it is found in Diddy's Kong Quest: Beat all the Klanks and come in first place. If the final Klank is beat, the coin will appear at the end of the level.
