History WMG / WackyRaces

He's fully aware that the Mean Machine is the best car in the race and he could anytime he felt like it. But he'd rather lose every race and have people be RootingForTheEmpire than win every race and be TheScrappy.

Basically, he and Muttley are immortal, as long as they don't play by the rules, he gets to keep living. But the curse also stipulates he will forever humiliate himself. He cheats out of fear that if he does not, he'll die, though this is more subconscious. That's why he's been alive since World War I and would have appeared in ''WackyRaces Forever''.

[[WMG: The Wacky Races are about as real as ProfessionalWrestling]]

[[WMG: The Slag Brothers are from the same universe as ''TheFlintstones'' and never appeared on that show.]]

How else could they be in both WWI and the 1960's?
* Time period is roughly ambiguous and I was given a point Mr. Burns has lived through both those things and then some. Dick and Muttley might be surprisingly old. The power of the DastardlyWhiplash type is to live for a surprisingly long time.

[[WMG: The races are a sort of reality show]]

Excluding the obvious likely change of voice actors and the change of technology there is a lot which could happen as we wait or more details this year. Will the character designs look a la Forever or look like how it was in the original cartoon but with an animation boost similar to Dick and Muttley's cameo in the UncleGrandpa episode Uncle Grandpa Retires? Will some characters be removed which leads to the introduction of new racers? These are all very important questions to joke and might be revealed as the truth.
* For one thing I hope we get an announcer back. The lack of Colm N. Tator in the pilot of Wacky Races Forever is the only complaint I had that seems good to mention.
* Although the original cartoon's episode plots of simply racing in an area, Dick trying and failing at gaining first place leading to laughs from his canine companion, and all wackiness in-between could easily fit Cartoon Network's current single eleven minute episode release style a bit more could be done in how entertainment has changed in this new age. Instead of a simple race the track there could be expansion and development on the racers' personalities, backgrounds, and reasons they decided to become Wacky Racers to begin with. Just because the title focuses on the races doesn't mean everything has to be on wheels 24/7 though that will be a basic in most episodes.

The Mean Machine seems to pass all the other divers multiple times during a race. Perhaps if it were to go that fast the whole race it would break down. So Dick stops to slow his opponents down so he can go at a pace at which the mean machine wont break down.
