The English version gave Rommel an Edward G. Robinson voice, as it did in other episodes.

I wonder if the Sea Horse Co. based Speed Racer on this episode?

  1. There is a strong resemblence between the White Planet & the Mach 5
  2. The cross-country racing is also similar
  3. The cheating """"
  4. & the automatic jacks resemble this car's jumping ability

This car reminds me of a taxicab in an old American cartoon. The cab had a son who wanted to be a hot rod, & could not pursuade him to become a taxi.

"its Speed Racer & the--no, its Koichi & the White Planet?!"

There are just so many similarities, too many to count. :D
