Summary: THE book for any SPEED RACER fan !!!!
Review: For everyone that ever loved Speed Racer and want to remember it, learn more about it and and revel in the fun, this is the book!The book goes through Speed's origins in Japan, his popularity there and his rebirth in America in the 60's. I never knew what Speed's japanese name was nor why he had that "G" on his shirt... read the book and find out for yourself! The book also includes a great episode guide and all sorts of details about the incredible MACH 5. (Yes, it has what each button on the steering wheel does!) AND she also includes details about a Brand New, updated Speed Racer anime show airing in Japan right now! Wait till you see the sketch of the new RACER X! One of the very best parts of the book is the Glossary in the back giving the details of Speed's world. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! BUY THIS BOOK!

Summary: Go Speed Racer Go!
Review: Good ol' Speed. Forever stating the obvious in his trademark excitable tone. Speaking of which, this book is perfect for "Speed Racer" fans to get excited about.
Author Elizabeth Moran hits the track with infectious enthusiasm and leaves in her backdraft plenty of fun info on all the various iterations of "Speed Racer," from the original manga and Japanese series to the imported version I grew up with... to the newer versions, including a proposed live action film that never got off the ground. Moran includes the requisite episode guides (and rates them!), plus interviews with both the Japanese and American creative teams, racing terms, a complete dictionary guide to Speed's world and transcripts from the ESPN "Nascar" commercials. And wait until you read the original Japanese lyrics to the now-classic theme. Yep, even master auto-designer Pops Racer couldn't have done a better job, because this book has more features than the Mach 5!
What's especially neat about this is that it's all in glorious full-color! The design matches the vibrant and vigorous animated series. A fun package, and highly recommended for any "Speed Racer" fan. Go, Speed Racer, go!

Summary: A Must Have For All ANIME Fans!
Review: Kudos to Elizabeth for her work compiling the information for this fabulous tome. "Sailor Moon?"...please! "Cowboy Bebop?"...utter drivel when compared with "Speed Racer." All you otaku out there should be on your knees paying homage to this classic series as it helped to pave the way for everything you watch and read today! And the best way to verse yourself in the classics is to watch and read. Get this book!

Summary: A wonderful guide to the show
Review: This book is a thorough and complete look at that great show, Speed Racer. It starts out with a quick look at the theme song of the show, the characters, the Mach 5, and the people behind the characters' voices. Then, the book launches into the best part of all, a one-page synopsis of each of the 52 episodes, complete with a picture from the episode. After that the book continues with the history of Speed after the show, complete with images from the new Mach Go Go Go show, and a glossary. This book is a wonderful stroll down memory lane for anyone who grew up watching Speed and the gang. My eight-year-old son, who is a chip-off-the-old-block and a Speed fan too, did not find too much in this book, but it is not intended as a story book. What the book is designed to be, it is wonderfully, a guide for fans of Speed Racer. I enjoyed this book and think that you will too!

Summary: I'm not the only one in the world!!!
Review: What a great book! It's good to know that I'm not the only fan of Speed in the world - my friends and family thought I was. It's a brilliant book, even if you don't like the series - but it's exceptional if you do. The trivia test I found...easy...but hey, I find most SR trivia things easy. There was a lot of interesting content, and heaps of pictures to accentuate the text! I wholly reccomend it!
