Speed Racer Thanksgiving Special

Hey, it’s Thanksgiving again, and along with Thanksgiving comes the nightmare of traffic jams on every highway across the land. And as a special cathartic fantasy piece for people in this travel nightmare situation, I thought it might be fun for someone to make an animated Speed Racer Thanksgiving Special. The storyline would be that Speed and Trixie, now married, have to drive hundreds of miles to go have Thanksgiving dinner at Mom’s and Pops’s house. Oh, but luckily for Speed, he’s got the powerful Mach 5: a car with buzzsaws in the front end that are so powerful, he can actually cut his way through a forest of thick trees while driving 100 mph (!). So, once he gets stuck in stop-and-go traffic on a freeway for too long, he lives every commuter’s fantasy and deploys those saws to cut his way through the gridlock, driving as fast as he wants to all the way along his journey. Then, this accomplished, they sit down to a nice Thanksgiving meal where his brother Rex reveals he’s been the mysterious Racer X all along! Then, Speed and Rex both pile into their cars and race to see who can cut their way through slow traffic the fastest on their way to Rex’s house (Rex has a big saw in the front of his car too, I think). The End.
