(5 out of 5 stars)

"Alright just to let you know this is my first review, so saying that i'll do my best to be honest and accurate. First off in reality i'd give this show a 4.5 rather than full 5 for me. The only reason is that Bandai never gave this show an English Dub.

That is not a bad thing of course because i switch off between dub and sub here and there anyway but for those who have to do other things like i do focusing on subtitles on a show that long is not always possible.

Besides that one flaw the series is actually pretty good. I won't give away any major spoilers but there is a predictable arc and a scenario similiar to Speed Racer but at the same time i din't mind that.

The show to me could stand on its own. It had some great character devolopment (from the car to the main characters arch rivals), great race scenes that took place all over the world (racing along the African savahna to over Mount Kilamanjaro for one) at ridiculous speeds, and cars that could give the Mach Five and Nightrider's Kitt a run for there money.

All in all it was a good show for the price I paid."
