Speed Racer’s Mach Five
I know you can just have your childhood taken away from you and to help you remember, that let us recall another cartoon known as Speed Racer. I know maybe hard to recall as it is not as famous as Spider-man or Superman. But I know there are some of you who know Speed Racer and of course who would forget Mach Five?
To benefit those who do not know who Mach Five is, well he is the racing car Speed Racer which also has a Japanese version called Go Mifune. The car was built by Pops Racer, Speed Racer’s father. The car also features several devices which Speed Racer uses throughout the series. The car was originally made in 1966. But the white car has M written on its hood and in 1993, the design was completely rechanged.
The car certainly does not have Mitsubishi Eclipse auto parts but the car sure has more gorgeous car parts than that. The name Mach Five was derived from fact that it speeds above Mach 5 are known as hypersonic but the car doesn’t speed up like Mach speeds. The name consists of two languages, one word is “five” and in Japanese it means “go”. In Japanese, “go” is attached to the names of the ships and many other transportation. The Japanese version of the car is also called “Mach” in Japan.
The car was given more power in the TV series. An unrealistic 20,000hp was given to the fictional version of the car. Aside from that, the car is also incapable of transmitting such power to the ground without spinning.
