'''''Banjo-Karting''''', or '''''Banjo-Kazoomie''''', was an unreleased ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' racing game developed on the [[Xbox 360]]. It was started by Rare Ltd. just before the release of ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''.<ref>[https://www.unseen64.net/2008/12/03/banjo-kazooie-nuts-bolts-x360-beta/ Unseen64]</ref> The concept is somewhat similar to ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]'', except that the characters would race in constructed vehicles made up of parts (like in ''Nuts & Bolts''). The game was cancelled when Rare began to only develop Kinect software.
