* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: While he may be an egotistical ManipulativeBastard who is willing to sacrifice his drivers if it mean gaining Accelechargers, he ''does'' have a soft spot, namely for Vert. After Vert returning sets off the security alarm and alerts Tezla and Gig of his arrival, Tezla lets out a gentle smile. And while he ''does'' initially act cross with Vert for just running off, he makes clear to Gig it was just to give him motivation. [[spoiler:And when the Acceledrome is invaded by the Racing Drones and Vert wants them both to escape together, he tells Vert to go on without him and entrusts him with stopping Gelorum, whispering him good luck as the Drones come to capture him.]] ''That being said'', he can still very much be seen as...
** JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: He does not put an EDR in the cars of Kadeem [[spoiler:, Banjee, Alec, or Dan]] despite clearly being able to do so, with horrific consequences, showing no guilt or remorse for it, [[spoiler: reveals Markie's capture in a very snide, unsympathetic manner]], cares more about the potentially lost accelecharger than the near-capture of Nolo and Monkey, [[spoiler: shows no concern for the potential imminent death of the defenseless drivers, and tries to convince Vert to abandon them when only he and Lani have the means to escape]].

* DeathOfPersonality: [[spoiler:While he initially responds to "Kadeem" after being ReforgedIntoAMinion, when Kurt tries to save him from a DisneyVillainDeath, he proclaims that "[[ThatManIsDead Kadeem is gone!]]" before letting himself fall, LaughingMad the entire time. Just prior, Kurt had tried reaching out to him by reminding him of his "people", but he had no idea what Kurt was talking about. It becomes clear that Brain Kadeem died before they could save him, and all that was left was a Racing Drone wearing his skin.]]

* CheatersNeverProsper: [[spoiler:Technically, she is the winner of the Ultimate Race. However, she only kept the lead by abusing the hell out of Accelechargers in every realm, while her opponent Vert raced using only his own skills, a fact that the Acceleron pointed out before marking Vert as the true winner. Gelorum, being a SoreLoser, suffers a VillainousBreakdown tries to eliminate Vert out of spite, causing the Acceleron to throw her into the void as a punishment.]]

Added example(s), General clarification on works content; I know we don't often list Aversions, but it is notable here as the Accelerons created the Racing Drones - yet the eyes of the Racing Drones are based on a pattern on the head of an Acceleron rather than on their own eyes

Added DiffLines:

* CyberCyclops: The RD-W1 have this.


Added DiffLines:

* ExtraEyes: Most of the Drones have these.


Added DiffLines:


!!The Accelerons
The EminentlyEnigmaticRace who created Highway 35 and the Racing Realms.
* ExtraEyes: Averted, they only have two real eyes. The ExtraEyes on the Racing Drones are based on small indentations on their forehead.
* TheGreys: They originally looked like this in the Highway 35 comics, but AcceleRacers would retcon their appearance.
* HumanoidAliens: They are blue-skinned, silver-eyed and they have blade-like horns on their head.
* Precursors: They are thousands of years older than humanity
* SeriousBusiness: They created two different sets of alternate dimensions for racing in, as well as a group of robots designed for racing.

* AbortedArc: Is implied to have some mysterious connection to the Racing Drones, due to her resembling Gelorum and she can somehow sense that [[spoiler: a drone is attacking the Sweeper she's in.]] Due to the film series being LeftHanging, we never got an answer for either of these scenes.

* UnskilledButStrong: In The ''Ultimate Race'', he is this. He's not a particularly ''unskilled'' driver by any means, but he isn't on the level of the other maniacs and with the possible exception of Lani, he is the worst driver in Tesla's group. As for the strong part, in The Ultimate Race [[AllThereInTheManual according to official materials]] his car is the fastest among the maniacs and besides Reverb (Vert's final car, 310 mph) and RD-09 (Gelorum's car, 306 mph), his car is the fastest with a top speed of 300 mph. Later after it's dismantled, he uses a Sweeper, which is stronger in a more traditional sense.
