*''' | *'''''Diddy Kong Racing'' instruction manual:''' "''(High acceleration, light weight, excellent handling, medium top speed) TipTup the turtle is another member of the close group of animal friends, but because of his nervous (and maybe even slightly clumsy) nature, he's never been particularly fond of the racing that the others seem to like so much. Now, though, he doesn't seem to have much choice!''" | ||
*'''Official Nintendo Player's Guide | *'''''Diddy Kong Racing'' Official Nintendo Player's Guide:''' "''We've all heard how a slow but clever tortoise used his brain to win a race over a swift but stupid hare. In this case, our little turtle will have a little high-tech help getting up to speed. Tiptup is a clever fellow himself, but when the pressure is on, his nervousness can sometimes get the better of him.''" | ||
