Like [[Banjo]] and [[Krunch]], Drumstick is a heavyweight racer, resulting in high top speed and poor acceleration and handling. Drumstick's top speed without bananas is 61.5 mph. [[T.T.]], the other unlockable character, is the only racer faster than him, though he is faster than TT on plane. In the remake, Drumstick's vehicles are slower, but his acceleration was significantly improved to being among highest. He also has slightly higher handling.

The method to unlock Drumstick is different in ''Diddy Kong Racing DS'': in the [[Timber's Island]] hub, the player must use the stylus to flick a frog on a cliff next to the Wizpig head. It then hops back down with a rooster's comb. Like the original version, the player must drive over the frog to unlock Drumstick.
