The Mini-Car[1] is a tiny, green toy slot car that appeared in Donkey Kong 64. It was made in Frantic Factory, and 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 needed to get at least ten DK Coins. After Tiny wins, the Mini-Car will give 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 the 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 pointed out.
