Some bonus challenges contain Item Boxes with the question mark replaced by the image of an item, such as a [[Bob-omb]]. These will immediately give the player one of that item, regardless of how many item slots the driver has. The player also cannot activate a Frenzy with such Item Boxes, even if three are collected. Another special type of Item Box introduced in the [[Valentine's Tour]] has a pink appearance with a rainbow outline on the question mark, and immediately activates a Frenzy of a given item. This special Item Box appears in the [[Goomba Takedown]] bonus challenges held at [[SNES Mario Circuit 2]] | Some bonus challenges contain Item Boxes with the question mark replaced by the image of an item, such as a [[Bob-omb]].
