| The '''Koopa Dasher''' (or the '''Koopa Wing''')<ref>{{cite|author=Hodgson, David S.|title=''Mario Kart: Double Dash'' PRIMA's Official Strategy Guide|page=29 and 33|date=November 25, 2003|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|language=en-us|isbn=0-7615-4424-0}}</ref> is a [[kart]] in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. It is shaped like a [[Green Shell]] with a "K" on the front. In early screenshots, it had an "N", because Koopa Troopa's Japanese name is ''Nokonoko''.<ref>{{file link|MKDD Waluigi Stadium early.png|Pre-release screenshot showing the "N"}}</ref>

| ==History==
| |
| ===''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''===
| |
| The Koopa Dasher first appears in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' as the signature kart of [[Koopa Troopa]]. It is a lightweight kart available by default. The Koopa Dasher is unique among the other lightweight karts, being larger with a little more weight compared to the others, allowing it to withstand hits from heavier karts better. It also has below-average speed, good acceleration, and decent handling. Its speed and acceleration are tied with the [[Rattle Buggy]] and the [[Boo Pipes]], with the latter stat being slightly stronger than the [[Toad Kart]]'s. Additionally, the Koopa Dasher bounces more than the Toad Kart and Rattle Buggy despite being heavier than them.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Kart Tour''===
| |
| The Koopa Dasher returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', where it is classified as a Normal kart. It no longer has a "K" on it, being replaced by the driver's emblem, the platform is absent, and its wheels no longer resemble shells. In the beta version, the kart used the [[Pipe Frame]]'s tires, but in the final game, it uses the [[Turbo Yoshi]]'s tires. The Koopa Dasher increases the duration of [[Rocket Start]] boosts and the number of points earned upon performing a Rocket Start.
| |
| | |
| The game also introduces a [[Dry Bones]]-themed variant of the Koopa Dasher, aptly named the [[Dry Bones Dasher]], in the [[Bowser Tour (2023)|2023 Bowser Tour]], and is designated as a High-End kart.
| |
| | |
| The Koopa Dasher appears in the First Pipe and Second Pipe of every tour and is a part of the Daily Selects set. The following table lists other availabilities for this kart by tour.
