'''Kludge''' is an unlockable playable racer in ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]''. He is a large, blue, and muscular [[Kremling]] with an "X" across his stomach, three white stripes on both arms, chains around his wrists, red eyes, and yellow shorts with a skull belt. His bongos are chained, are spiked on the top and bottom, and have a blue "X" on the sides. Kludge is the rival of [[Funky Kong]]. Kludge appears in two cutscenes: In the [[Cranky's Flight School]] cutscene, Kludge is seen training along [[Diddy Kong]], [[Tiny Kong]], and [[Kip]], while in the Records cutscene, he is seen looking at a scoreboard with Tiny Kong, [[Funky Kong]], [[Dixie Kong]], and Kip. To unlock Kludge, the player has to complete the [[Diamond Cup]] as a Kremling. Kludge has low boost and agility, which is compensated for his top speed.
