==Trivia== | |||
*This is one of the vehicles, along with the [[Classic Dragster]], [[Daytripper]], [[Cheep Charger]], and the [[Honeycoupe]], that has a color scheme based on the traditional colors from the rainbow and it is the only one of those that is a [[Bike|bike]]. | |||
*The tires on this bike feature a "wavy" design also found on the Cheep Charger and [[Super Blooper (kart)|Super Blooper]]. The wheels inside the tires have beach ball-like patterns. These vehicles are all based on aquatic Mario series enemies. | |||
*Mario's Dolphin Dasher has the color scheme of an actual Dolphin from ''Super Mario World''. This is thus the only vehicle not to have a red color scheme for Mario, which is used by Diddy Kong in this case instead of his usual brown. All other drivers have different color schemes of their own. | |||
*If Mario or Luigi ride the Dolphin Dasher, its weight can surpass that of the [[Sprinter]]'s and [[Shooting Star (bike)|Shooting Star]]'s by one point. | |||
