Before there was Mario Andretti. Before there was Danica Patrick.

There was… Speed Racer. You Go Speed Racer. And so he went.

I told Donna that I was a Speed Racer fan as a kid. Next thing you know, for my birthday a few years ago, I became the proud owner of my own “Mach 5.” It’s almost as cool as my 09′ Corolla…almost.
