Trivia
- Its name is most likely a reference to the controls of the side-scrolling NES and Game Boy games - the player presses and holds the B Button to dash. The B Button in SNES was also responsible for acceleration in Super Mario Kart.
- In Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, Mario's original kart resembles a stylized form of the B Dasher.
- The B Dasher's tailpipe design seems to be the inspiration for the tailpipe designs of the Standard Karts S/M/L from Mario Kart Wii.
- The B Dasher's name in Dutch is Sprinter, a reference to the Sprinter (B Dasher Mk. 2 in PAL regions and Japan) from Mario Kart Wii.
- The Circuit Special in Mario Kart 8 is called Sprinter 2.0 in Dutch, further making it a successor to both karts.
