Diddy Kong Racing 5000

Diddy Kong Racing 5000 is a fanfic featuring characters from Nintendo and Rareware games participating in the races of Diddy Kong Racing.

The story starts with an unexpected meeting involving the Diddy Kong Racers, where Taj announces the first annual Diddy Kong Racing 5000. The racers then prepare for the race, and through some strange circumstances (including a botched money delivery that gets the Super Smash Bros. involved), others get involved in the race as well. The stage is set for mayhem like you've never seen before.

Tropes used in Diddy Kong Racing 5000 include:
  • Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: Nobody says a thing when Taj enlists the Diddy Kong Racers in the DKR 5 K, Bumper seems pleased the DKR bosses will participate as well, and everyone is shocked to hear Wizpig will be racing too.
    • Also, this commercial:

Crash Bandicoot: I'll give you a PlayStation for it.
Mario: I'll give you a Nintendo 64.
Luigi: I'll give you all Nintendos.
Bowser: I'l give you the Koopa Kingdom.
Donkey Kong: I'll get you your own game.
Link: I'll get you your own game series.
Zelda: I'll get all these people off your back.

Wizpig: I'm all powerful, and I'm very fast. Team with me and we'll KICK SOME--
Grunty: Pass by me whatever you say. That's not good enough from my portray.

  • Trying to Catch Me Fighting Dirty: The Marathon Man pulls the same thing on Link at the end of the Dragon Forest round that he pulls regularly in Ocarina of Time, no matter how many times you race him.
  • Unusual Euphemism: "You're a lyin' piece of shoe!"
    • Also, "stinkin' ugly piece o' bosses".
  • We Need a Distraction: "Look! It's Halley's Comet!" The DKR bosses (except for Bluey) fall for it, and that's just because they actually saw it.
  • What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?: Banjo is not too pleased that Tooty's into horror flicks such as the Comeback King movies.
  • You Blew Up My Arwing: Slippy wants to avenge his Arwing's destruction on Trevelyan.
  • You Wanna Get Sued?: The Super Smash Bros. commercial is parodied by the Diddy Kong Racers, but the main reason they're pissed with Banjo is because of a botched attempt to send them the money they asked for before the commercial was broadcast.
    • Phrase-stealing happens twice: first, Bowser, when falling out of DK's cabin, emits the Goofy holler and is called out by Goofy himself. Later, when Bogey shows up, Pipsy tells T.T. he's the guy that stole his phrase.
