What is commonly known as a boost counter<ref name="SMKTAS">[http://tasvideos.org/GameResources/SNES/SuperMarioKart.html Game Resources / SNES / Super Mario Kart]. ''TASVideos''. Retrieved February 19, 2018.</ref> is a value that is meant to start at 0 when a drift begins and gradually increase while the player drifts, at a rate that can vary depending on certain conditions. When a certain threshold value is reached, an event happens: either a cosmetic event (sparks appearing, indicating that the full charge of a degree of Mini-Turbo is near) or the charge of a certain degree of Mini-Turbo (either Mini-Turbo, Super Mini-Turbo, or Ultra Mini-Turbo). Once drifting ends, the counter resets and the degree of Mini-Turbo charged is released.

===Manual charging===
This method of Mini-Turbo charging relies on the player steering toward the outside of the turn, then toward the inside and then toward the outside again during a drift to charge a Mini-Turbo.<ref name ="MK64manual">[http://www.retrogames.cz/manualy/N64/Mario_Kart_64_-_Nintendo_64_-_Manual.pdf Official manual of ''Mario Kart 64'']. Retrieved February 19, 2018.</ref> After the first time the player correctly steers toward the outside of the turn, there are visual indicators coming from the driving wheels that the Mini-Turbo has been half charged: either a different color of the letters or sparks coming out of the tires. When the Mini-Turbo is fully charged, said indicators change color again. After it is charged, the Mini-Turbo is released by releasing the drift button.
