- TriviaThis show actually has NOTHING to do with Hot Wheels. You see, it is a French series that got dubbed by Mattel, who wanted to use it for an advertisement, which is why its English title is "Heroes on Hot Wheels".

Featured review
Nothing but a dumbed down version of Speed Racer
I'm not sure why everyone likes this show. It's just a huge ripoff of Speed Racer. Think about it, it's about a guy being the best racer ever, and traveling the world and winning EVERY race. The mechanic is an obvious ripoff of Sparky. Also, Micheal acts like Speed, and even LOOKS like Speed. I also saw a car at the beginning of the opening that VERY suspiciously looks like the Mach 5. The whole opening screams "Huge knockoff of Speed Racer Here!" Also, the show is so terrible that they couldn't dub it as it was. They decided it was so bad they would turn it into another advertisement for toys. So instead of "Michel Valliant" it became a Hot Wheels advertisement. But that is not the worst part. As you can clearly see, it's just a dumbed down version of a beloved classic anime, which we loved so much, and ruined it big time. I shall respect those who like this. But being a devoted fan of Speed Racer, I just can't support this obvious ripoff. It's even based on a comic strip like Speed Racer was! HUGE THUMBS DOWN = NEGATIVE 100 out of 10.
