In the editor you can directly place a kart as playable/player and use it, although if you get out you won't be able to get in.
And although I haven't tried, there are probably dozens more ways and scripts that would let you skip the restrictions.

I don't think it is a bug... I think its good for advertising. When I saw the update, i immediately went into the editor to see what it was like, even though I hadn't bought anything yet. I messed around and thought, "you know what... for £1.19, ill get it." So i did! And thoroughly enjoyed the challenges, so i am building my own mission with them included. - Tom M, doing the ARMA PR's job for them.

Also, if you read this [http://www.bistudio.com/english/company/developers-blog/465-roadmap-14-15-dlc-strategy-blog] it outlines how they will be pushing DLC to people. Its actually a very clever system. Everyone will have the content in their game files but will only be able to unlock the full potential through purchasing.
