'''Swanky's Dash''' is a location operated by [[Swanky Kong]] in the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!|Donkey Kong Country 3]]''. It replaces every [[Swanky's Sideshow]] from the original version. There is a Swanky's Dash in every world except [[Krematoa]]. As he did in Swanky's Sideshow, Swanky charges two [[bear coin]]s each time the mini-game is played.

Gameplay[edit]

Gameplay of Dixie in the Lake Orangatanga challenge

Swanky's Dash is a virtual-reality game. In it, Dixie (Kiddy cannot participate because Swanky says he is too young) runs through a pipeline filled with small stars and explosive spiky obstructions. There are 100 stars in every stage, where Dixie has to grab the stars by moving all around the perimeter of the pipeline, and she has to try as many of them within 45 seconds. If Dixie hits a spiky obstruction, she loses every star that she collected. Every stage has a unique layout, with later ones including more spiky obstructions.

Entering "EXTRAS" from the Cheats menu unlocks a "Bonus Games" menu option, where Swanky's Dash can be replayed, along with Cranky's Dojo and Funky's Rentals. When playing Swanky's Dash from there, the player can choose which stage to play, and each challenge saves a high score if Dixie collects more stars than previously before.
