i'm no speed demon, myself, but i can educate you all a little on this topic here; Speed Racer, or "Mach GO-GO-GO" as it is known in japan, was one of the very first "Anime" (japanese animation) ever released in the U.S. back in the late sixties. the other two being Gigantor (Tetsujin 28) and Astro Boy. however, Speed Racer, of course, has always been the one most cherished and remembered, for obvious reasons. it was also known for being possessed of some of the silliest english vocal dub work ever; most of the characters litterialy speak about as fast as Speed, or rather "Go Hibiki" drives his Mach 5!! anyway, i personally don't have any particular love of the series, but, it is, of course, an anime classic...
