Kart

Karts are seen in CTR and CNK. In CTR, each character has a specific color for their kart. For instance, Crash is blue, Cortex is red, Tiny is green and Coco is pink.

In CNK, they are blue for Team Bandicoot, red for Team Cortex, green for Team Trance and yellow for Team Oxide. They are like basic go-karts, except that they are faster and can fire different weapons like missiles or bombs.

Appearances
The vehicle first appeared in Crash Team Racing which is the first Crash Bandicoot game to have racing in the series which the second game goes to Crash Nitro Kart and the other two goes to Crash Nitro Kart 2 (Java) and Crash Nitro Kart 3D including CNK 2.
