2----
3* The very first shot in the movie features what may be the most gorgeously detailed illustration of a pile of pistachio shells to ever appear in an animated movie. This is how you know the animators weren't fucking around.
4* Lynchman catching up to his FULL SPEED vehicle, ON FOOT.''WHILE BEING SHOT.''
5%%** Lynchman and Johnny Boya in general are crazy awesome .
6** Lynchman is also the Batman Expy...except with hotblooded-ness.
7* Three words: PLATINUM NITRO CHARGE.
8--> '''Sonoshee''': A deal's a deal, I wanna see that finish line!
9* The finale of the race, where JP and Machinehead are abusing Nitro to the point their cars are literally ''tearing apart from the stress'', and still keep on racing.
10* Colonel Volton fusing with a bio-engineered AnimalisticAbomination to take down the Manga/{{AKIRA}}-esque Funky Boy in a fight to the death.
11* The entire ending, with the bomb in JP's vehicle accidentally being triggered, and only serving to make it go ''faster''. Then JP manages to win the race in a photo finish, despite his vehicle finally exploding, and only winning because his pompadour crossed the finish line first.
12* The entire design of Godwing. In the flashbacks it's seen that it use to be a conventional racecar. But as of the latest Redline it's one gigantic badass boast; it's rider has no cockpit to ride in, and is instead the literal nose of the car, it's less of a car with jet engines and more of a jet engine with wheels bolted on, and whereas other cars have their nitro boosters as complex pieces of machinery, Godwing's Nitro is triggered by Machinehead ''biting down on the nitro packet''. It's stated that most people can't even survive the concussive speeds of a Steamlight nitroboost, ''and Machinehead literally eats them''.
13* Near the end of the race, Frisbee [[ScrewTheMoneyIHaveRules refuses to blow up JP's car again]], that is in spite of [[TheMobBossIsScarier Inuki]] giving him a massive check to change his mind and then siccing his goons on him when he says otherwise
14--> '''Frisbee''': I want to see him do it, just this once! He's so close, I want to see him win for once in his life!
15* The Redline committee clowning over the President. Firstly, Roboworld makes it as clear as clean glass that they intend to kill anyone trespassing on their planet, especially the racers. But does that stop the race? Of course not! The Princess of Planet Supergrass sends two remote ships to put on an impressive aerial display before painting Des Tower as the finish line. Then come the finish line, the Redline mothership warps out of hyperspace right from under the tower acting as the straightaway to the finish! Suffice to say Redline does not mess around!
16* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: ''The entire soundtrack''. There's really no middle line.
17** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doEwWzMz99A Yellow Line]], the track that plays for the titular opening race.
18** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNrjtYd_BsM "REDLINE"]], which plays during the Red Line race's penultimate stretch. One might recognize it when Machinehead unleashes the [[NitroBoost Blue Streamlight]], followed soon after by JP and Sonoshee.
19** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbJanCYONrk "REDLINE DAY (feat. Rob Laufer)"]], the ending credits theme.

21!!Pilot
22* The entirety of the pilot in a nutshell! The whole thing gives you a perfect taste of what to expect in the movie!
23* The racers are dropped down on the track like in the actual film and just like in the film, the military is trying to stop the race with as many guns as they got! What follows is the various racers making complete fools out of the soldiers! And to be fair, [[AudienceSurrogate the spectators' reaction says it all.]]
24** Lynchman jumps out of the Lynchcar mid-drop and gets into a one-man dogfight against the airforce jumping from one jet to the next destroying them one after another!
25** SuperBoins' car going [[TransformingMecha mecha mode]] and fighting off the enemy robots who also transform!
26** [=JP=] casually stomping out his cigarette on an enemy robot while it transforms and outrunning its missile!
