Collect the Balloons

|
The first balloons you
should collect are in the Overworld. Like how T.T. has hidden keys in
the courses, Taj has hidden balloons in the Overworld.

This one is right on the
ramp of Dino Domain. Or, when you start the game, it is on the first
ramp that you see. (Car, Hovercraft, Plane)
(1 Balloon) |
 |
Number two is to the
left of Wizpig's face. Go past the next waterfall and it should be
right in front on your face. (Plane)
(2 Balloons) |
 |
This next one is by the
log tunnel that connects the Snow World's river to the ocean. Push the
brakes before you reach this tiny ledge! (Plane)
(3 Balloons) |
 |
Look at the map in the
bottom right corner for reference. Use the plane to go through the log
tunnel and shoot out past the little area. Turn around and you should
see balloon #4. This is the last overworld balloon. (Plane, Hovercraft)

DINO
DOMAIN
Now go to Dino Domain,
complete the tracks, race the boss, win the Silver Coin Challenge, and
beat the boss again. This is the daily schedule for balloon winning in
the worlds!

Taj's Races
[Listen
to Taj]
[Screen

|
Taj, the genie of the
island, challenges you to three races to test your driving skills. If
you beat him, he awards you with a golden balloon. Each race is in a
different vehicle. Below are maps of each race in case you get confused
of where to go. Next to them are strategies, but each challenge really
isn't that hard. So if you're an expert at Diddy Kong Racing, it won't
take you a long time to accomplish this. |

|
Car
Challenge
This race is very easy. If you are an expert you might be able to
powerslide the whole way through. |
Hovercraft
Challenge
This might very well be the hardest challenge. You can cut through
Snowflake Mountain's entrance place, but not through Taj's meadow. He
will say you have taken the wrong route. Be sure to hop around every
turn using the R button. |
 |

|
Plane
Challenge
This race is
fairly easy and almost like the hovercraft race. be sure when you
re-enter Taj's meadow to make a tight bank turn or you will hit the
wall and lose a lot of time. |
