'''''Donkey Kong Racing''''' is an unreleased [[Nintendo GameCube]] game of the ''[[mariowiki:Donkey Kong (series)|Donkey Kong]]'' series, intended as a sequel to ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''. The game was first revealed at E3 2001, as a full-motion video trailer, and It was developed by [[Rare Ltd.|Rare]] and was slated for a release in 2002.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20010622042146/http://www.rareware.com/the_site/e3/dk_racing.html Rareware.com]</ref> Due to [[Microsoft]]'s acquisition of Rare, who lost the right to develop ''[[mariowiki:Donkey Kong (series)|Donkey Kong]]'' games, the game was being reworked into ''Sabreman Stampede'', but the game ended up being cancelled entirely.

Most details about the game are unknown. The main mechanic was that the [[mariowiki:Kong|Kong]]s (and [[mariowiki:Taj the Genie|Taj]], who was also in the trailer) would ride [[mariowiki:Animal Friend|Animal Friends]] as "vehicles", with varying colors and sizes.

The two other ''Donkey Kong'' games shown at E3 2001, ''Diddy Kong Pilot'' and ''Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers'', were also cancelled but later reworked into ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]'' and ''Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers'' respectively.
