So.... I saw Speed Racer the other day and really liked it. Kinda annoying in places, but I guess it's meant to be for kids so I can't bag on it too much.

Anyway, it got me thinking...

I have a vague memory of a Speed Racer-esque cartoon that I used to watch as a kid, but it involved a boy and a girl, who had a blue car and pink car. It looked all futuristic and stuff, and I'm pretty sure the cars could do stuff like drive upside down and the like.

Anyone have any ideas of what I'm talking about? Confused

Cy is too ashamed to post and admit he thinks he might know what this is...anyway, he thinks it might be Pole Position

But the car looks orangey rather than pink, although that may just be how the colours look on my screen.

And according to Wikipedia there is a box set just come out.

I saw this last weekend and have been trying to find time to write a review. Maybe tomorrow will be the time.

I remember Speed Racer being quite big in the early nineties, i even managed to find an old trading card set in the store room dated 1993.

Pole Position! Thanks guys Smile

Just been watching the beginning on youtube over and over and over...

Theme tunes in the 80s were awesome.
