While Schwarz admitted that standards and practices were a major reason behind the globetrotting races on the original series вЂ“ 'Kids can't go racing all over the world ' вЂ“ he said ultimately the VR track, 'enabled them to do things they couldn't do. At that point I felt a lot of pressure!' Csolak said he was very excited about playing the new Speed Racer, explaining, 'I can relate to the Speed character - How he spoke and the kind of person he was.' The series is set at a high school where a virtual reality race track is used, allowing the races to take place in any kind of environment вЂ“ clips showed one race in a very Tron-looking area. Csolak admitted he initially didn't have much familiarity with Speed Racer, but added, 'After I got my role, people my parents age would come up to me and sing the theme song and say they'd watch it every day after school growing up. Holy crap!' Schwarz said they initially had a hard time finding the right young actor to play Speed, but were impressed with Csolak immediately. Laughed Fernandez, 'I was probably playing a little coy.' Schwarz turned to Fernandez and told him, 'For fans of the show to work with you, that made it all. YES NO When the casting director suggested trying to get Peter Fernandez, it wasn't initially clear if he was available, said the producers. We can make them more high tech and more up to date.' The racing itself will be a lot more action packed for our budget than just drawing cars out. We wanted to take that as a starting point but develop it in a way where we could play out the action sequences.' Holt elaborated that by using computer animation for the races, 'You can pay more attention to the vehicles and they can have a character of their own.

Said Schwarz, 'We wanted to have the 2D feel of the original show, but we didn't want to try to remake the classic Speed Racer. While the characters are traditional 2D animation, the racing sequences are all computer animated. They also said the question of what exactly happened to the original Speed Racer will be dealt with. At one point Speed spins around and drives his car backwards during the race, and X yells, 'That's my father's move!' The producers said that by the end of the first three episodes, more of the relationships between the characters will be clear. A different eight minute race sequence also screened showed Speed driving an earlier, very junky looking car in a race, pitted against the character X, who is touted as the son of Speed Racer. However, he finds the engine intended for the Mach 6, and a new vehicle is created. Here, Fernandez is the voice of the adult Spritle, in a series that picks up long after the original.ДЄ trailer shown revealed that the new, high school age Speed ends up wrecking the Mach 5.
