The '''B Dasher''' is a [[kart]] from the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. It is a long, skinny, white kart with a red stripe along the front and a massive engine block with four large exhaust pipes. The emblem is located on the hood. It appears on the box art of ''Mario Kart DS'', and it resembles a classic 1960s Formula 1 car. It is the first vehicle in the series to have a racing car design, a feature that has become a staple in subsequent games. Its name is most likely a reference to the controls of the side-scrolling platform games, in which the player presses and holds the B button to dash. The {{button|snes|B}} button on the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] is also used for acceleration in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. | The '''B Dasher''' is a [[kart]] from the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series.

In ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', there is a kart called the [[B Dasher Mk. 2]] (Sprinter in its North American version, which is the B Dasher's Dutch name), which makes it the B Dasher's successor. The [[Circuit Special]] is another successor of the B Dasher, as it is called "Sprinter 2.0" in Dutch, and could possibly be a successor of the B Dasher Mk. 2 from ''Mario Kart Wii'' as well. The [[Zucchini]] is similar in design to the B Dasher, but with a very different paint job. | In ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', there is a kart called the [[B Dasher Mk. 2]] (Sprinter in its North American version, which is the B Dasher's Dutch name), which makes it the B Dasher's successor.
