 What's next? An Excitebike? Mach Rider's bike? The Monster car from 3D Hot Rally? A Landmaster even?

Given that Mario & Luigi drive the Monster in 3D Hot Rally, that would be pretty cool. actually.

Are there any other non-Mario Karts? And who drives the Blue Falcon? Rosalina?

The Blue Falcon is a small kart. If I've heard right from teh internets, Baby Mario drives it for some unfathomable reason. I don't think there are any other non-Mario karts, tho.
EDIT: On the previous page, Dasher Misire says its Koopa's, not Baby Mario's.

Actually, Mach Rider bike seems to be in. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFZ-eAan20UNot the color but it does look to be similar. And the name of course. Oh and in a sense we have Excitebike bikes since the bikes come from the game Mario's Excitebike. |

Yeah, that looks like Mach Rider's bike. Here's a Wiki pic to compare with it.  Just make it orange and you've got the Mach Bike. It makes me happy that Nintendo has finally relized that they have other franchises than the Big 5 (Mario, Zelda, Kirby, Star Fox and recently Metroid). |

I'm overjoyed.
Good throwbacks in karts like the Kamek Kart and SMW Dolphin Kart, also Wario's Bike, still.
And of course F-ZERO AND MACH RIDER. AND STILL HAPPY MARIO EXCITEBIKE IS GETTING A PSEUDO-SEQUEL... AND SORTA EXCITEBIKE WII.
Qu, it's a lightweight kart. It's for any lightweight. I meant Koopa since I love Koopa in Mario Kart games.

Whoa! There's a Dolphin Kart? Got link? Rad either way. EDITed out a stupid comment. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuxINkCt1v4&feature=relatedHere's a video that shows all of the karts. There's 4 bikes & karts for each weight class, and they change colors for each character. It looks like the Monster did make it i! The Lightweight's fourth kart looks like it's trophy in Melee. Of course, that could be the video quality, and we don't see it's name. As for another cameo, Wario has the Wario Car again. Since it first appeared in Wario Land 4 as the Wario Mobil,/Brute this is another cameo, and one Fry doesn't have on his Double Dash!! page (Unless he didn't count it for some reason) |

The karts are pretty much the best thing this time around. Capt Falcon Mii riding his Blue Falcon  Also the underwater tunnel in that course reeeally reminds me of Stunt Racer FX. |
