What the subject says---which ones were your favorites? (I know there's only one selection option in the poll---forgot to click on the "allow multiple selections" option and there's no way to edit the polls, hmph).

While I liked 'em all, my favorites were:
Dick and Muttley in the Mean Machine
Luke and Blubber Bear in the Arkansas Chuggabug
The Creepy Coupe with the Gruesome Twosome
The Ant Hill Mob in the Bulletproof Bomb...

-B.

The Creepy Coupe was comic genius. I remember one time they had a giant snake under the car & as they passed Penelope, she yelled "Ooooh a snake!!!!" :eek: & hit it with her umbrella off her car, causing them to fall behind...a very quick scene & very funny.:D

My favorite is the Arkansas Chuggabug, especially the episode where Luke had to sneak Blubber Bear out of the National Park.

My favorites were first the Mean Machine (Dastardly & Muttley) followed by:

The Convert-a-Car (Prof. Pat Pending)
The Creepy Coupe (Gruesome Twosome)
The Turbo Teriffic (Peter Perfect)
The Boulder Mobile (Slag Bros.)
The Crimsom Haybailer (Red Max)
The Compact Pussycat (Penelope Pitstop)

My favorites are:

#5 The Compact Pussycat with Penelope Pitstop (4th in final rankings)

#1 The Bouldermobile with the Slag Brothers, Rock & Gravel (World's Wackiest Racer!)

I see that #00, The Mean Machine, is getting the most votes so far despite finishing last in the official rankings. Sorry, but Dick Dastardly and Muttley *deserved* to finish last. They easily could have won many if not most of the 34 races had they not kept stopping to cause trouble for the other ten teams.

I definitley have to go with Chug-A-Boom. I mean, come on, the car has a personality!!!

Chug-a-Boom had a personality, all right. However, that car didn't compete in the Wacky Races; instead, the Ant Hill Mob used it in "The Perils of Penelope Pitstop" spinoff. Their Wacky Race vehicle was the Bulletproof Bomb, which had no personality although at least it didn't fall apart like the Turbo Terrific did.

I suspect that Chug-a-Boom's name may have been borrowed from the Arkaksas Chugg-a-bug. See the similarity in the names? This may also explain why Car #8 is now challenging the "00" in popularity - due to the name confusion.

Nothing beats Dick Dastardly and Muttley in the 00 Mean Machine. They're just the best characters in the show.

The Buzzwagon followed by the Mean Machine, but I voted for Buzzwagon as it had no votes :sad:

The Mean Machine is the coolest looking, The Convert A Car is the most creative, and the Arkansas Chugabug is the funniest looking. All the others have their merits, but these stand out the most... and darn, no multiple options... No vote frome me then...
