While Trixie has been captured on occasion by the villains, she refuses to cower or plead for her release, more often giving the bad guy a serious tongue-lashing until she is either rescued or escapes on her own.
On some occasions, Trixie has even been the one to rescue Speed or other male characters from their predicaments. Racer X is a mysterious, selfless, sympathetic, and often brooding soldier of fortune whose secret identity is that of Rex Racer, Speed's older brother.
Six years prior, Rex had a falling out with Pops after Rex wrecked a race car that Pops had built. Pops told Rex prior to the race that he was not prepared to compete at the professional racing level.
With less than one lap to go, Rex was leading and cruising toward victory, but lost control of the car and wrecked it. Pops exploded with anger and berated Rex, and in response Rex exiled himself, vowing to become the world's greatest race car driver.

Speed Racer. View source. History Talk 0. Plot Teenager Speed Racer aspires to be the world's best race-car champion with the help of his friends, family and his father's high-tech race-car, the Mach 5. Characters Speed Racer — The protagonist of the series, he is known for his love of racing and valuing his family.
Cars go over cliffs in each and every episode They're obviously dead show me another cartoon from this period that gleefully shows a guy getting stripped to the bone by ravenous piranha??? And that finality adds weight to the often-times dark stories that involve greed, revenge, guilt and plain old murderous intent. That hyper-realism, mixed with the stories' frequent use of surreal, outsized, fantastical, supernatural threats and villains, creates a delightfully bizarre world that still packs a semiological punch today.
Character motivations, alongside the eye-popping action, are equally important to Speed Racer' s success. What little kid doesn't respond on a deeply submerged level to Speed's constant need to prove himself capable in an adult world?
His drive to master the physical world around him through the Mach 5? His desire to prove himself worthy of a parent and absent brother he idolizes? That's Speed Racer' s hook.
The Video: The full-screen, 1. Certainly, quite a bit of the screen anomalies that show up originated in the animation process which was hurried, on the low budget. But it's also apparent that Lionsgate which doesn't have the best reputation for the quality of its transfers hasn't done anything to clean these up. Colors are muted, the picture can be soft at times, and interlacing is a factor. Still, these will look fine to a little kid, who won't care if the colors are occasionally fuzzy.
The Audio: The original mono track has been split into a Dolby Digital mix, with an appropriate, but not outstanding, level of loudness. Hiss is a minor factor, but the dialogue is clear, at least. Close-captions are available. The Extras: First, there are no original Japanese audio tracks here - just the original English dubs. The discs are housed in a compact disc holder-sized, stiff-board booklet, with cardboard slip holders for the discs the episodes are listed on the holders.
The booklet fits into the special metal case that's shaped like the Mach 5. It measures 10" long, by 6" wide, by 2" thick. It's split like a candy tin. I can't say it did much for me; it wouldn't fit on my regular DVD shelves, so I would imagine the cardboard booklet will be taken out, and the tin stored.
Bonuses on the discs are a bit thin. On disc 2, there are buttons in the menu that lead you to clips and text about various villains and other themes in the show. It's a pretty thin documentary, considering the importance of the show in American and world pop culture.
