“Oh no! The shame of being beaten by a monkey! I'll let you have this prize if you promise not to mention this to the other cars in the pit lane.”
Mini-Car, Donkey Kong 64

The Mini-Car[1] is a tiny green toy slot racecar that appears in Donkey Kong 64. It was made in Frantic Factory, and it is found on the toy racetrack within. The Mini-Car challenges Tiny Kong to a race around the track. In order to win, Tiny also needs to get at least ten DK Coins. After Tiny wins, the Mini-Car gives her a Golden Banana, in return for Tiny promising not to tell any of the other cars of its loss. Later, in Creepy Castle, the Mini-Car challenges Tiny to another race, also taking place in Frantic Factory. After Tiny beats the Mini-Car again, it gives her another Golden Banana. Apparently, the second banana was its only possession, as it sadly points out.
