randx0 Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 I just picked up the full detail batmobile and i have always like speed racer and it occured to me that they came out around the same time then I wondered who would win a race both cars seem evenly matched however the mach 5 is probably much lighter. Your thoughts..........
Junkman Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Nemo's car could at least give them both a run for their money. The TDF-Pointer can certainly intercept them, because it's based on an Imperial. And that's a Mopar after all. But Grandpa Munster would leave all of them in the dust with his Dragula.
randx0 Posted November 1, 2011 Author Posted November 1, 2011 The Batmobile's (alledged) jet turbine is supposed to be able to boost the car to speeds of nearly 300 miles per, so the Bat would definitely blow Mach five away. I don't think anyone could go around a corner at 300 mph. and I have never seen anyone pull away from the mach five unless speed goes off course.
randx0 Posted November 1, 2011 Author Posted November 1, 2011 just for arguements sake lets assoume that the race is an endurance race that puts every gadget to use. both have quite a few similar gadgets.
Chuck Most Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Batmobile- if push came to shove, the Caped Crusader could use the Batmobile's greater mass to pummel the Mach 5 into oblivion!
Dr. Cranky Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 How about combining the two and coming up with another model the BAT 5! Just an idea . . .
Chuck Most Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 How about combining the two and coming up with another model the BAT 5! Just an idea . . . I've actually been kicking around that idea- a Batmobile combined not with a Mach 5 but with another famous hero car. (No, not a General Lee! )
Kaleb Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Silver could beat them all...from the lone ranger of course.
Draggon Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Well, the Batmobile is quite "trixy" and can climb the side of buildings, but the Mach 5 can jump and fly. While Batman and Robin are climbing up the side of a gorge, Speedy and Mach 5 have jumped over it and are on their way!
moparmagiclives Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Which Batmobile? I didnt know one was built for race.
bigphoto Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 How about combining the two and coming up with another model the BAT 5! Just an idea . . . Hey Virgil, That already exists!! http://www.carlustblog.com/2008/10/alfa-romeo-bat.html
RodneyBad Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 The Mach 5 of course. it is touted as the Fastest car in the world. The Mach 5 also has seven or Eight mechanisms (Not 5) depending on which version (Anima or Movie) The Mach 5 also comes with a Trunk Monkey, Can't get better than that.
randx0 Posted November 1, 2011 Author Posted November 1, 2011 Well I haven't quite finished thinking it through but I think i might be kind of leaning towards the mach 5 or maybe the batmobile. but seriously in all seriousness I do think that given the proper venue it would be a very close race .
randx0 Posted November 1, 2011 Author Posted November 1, 2011 Hey Virgil, That already exists!! http://www.carlustbl...-romeo-bat.html good call Tim!
RodneyBad Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 And the Mach 5 doesn't fly, and the movie version sucked! Sucked? it would have to be better to be that bad. On a scale of 1-10, it was a -11.
62rebel Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 FAB-1, by a "nose".... btw.... how many movie and TV connected car and truck kits have there been? i had, for a brief time, a T.H.E. Cat Sting Ray roadster..... i ALMOST sanded the logo off the rear panel to put a license plate there. Herbie would undoubtedly emerge victorious against ALL opponents... 36 air-cooled horsepower and no gadgetry at all!
Agent G Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Batman could kick Speed Racer's a-us any day. Cars too....................... G
Moparkid13 Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 I say mach 5. Ive never seen the batmobile go over 20 mph.
randx0 Posted November 2, 2011 Author Posted November 2, 2011 (edited) and the mach 5 has a full steering wheel. Edited November 2, 2011 by randx0
Dr. Cranky Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 I'm choose Mach 5 . . . I've never liked the Batman mobiles, not even in real life:
