** Dan Dresden doesn't have any dialogue until the fourth race, but he has his fans for his decent showing in the final race and being the one to invite Mark to the race in the first place.
** Roadbeast driver Esmeralda has little screen time or dialogue outside of the second race and its preamble, doesn't do much besides tagging along with the others, and is neither seen nor mentioned in the sequel series. Still, she has a decent amount of appreciation and fan art.

** How do the racers besides the Dune Ratz, Kurt Wylde, and the Wave Rippers get past the sand in the third leg of the race?
** The Whole Final Jump to return the Wheel of Power, how Vert was able to get up the ramp despite less momentum and almost no Nitrox-2 left.
** Why Vert didn't use another ramp (there are three others) instead of the one that had just been sliced and diced? Was it because the other ramps would also follow suit because of Gelorum or what?
** How did the Accelerons built Highway-35 in the alternate dimension?

* BrokenBase: Shockingly enough, there was-and still is-a '''massive''' split by fans of World Race over it's sequel series WesternAnimation/HotWheelsAcceleracers even back when they aired on websites like IMDB and TV.com . Many fans of World Race criticize the way characters like Markie and Kurt were handled, the garish shift in art style and uglier character designs, the percieved to be unlikable new characters and despised the darker tone that these films have compared to World Race. The fact that Acceleracers is LeftHanging where as World Race is virtually a complete story and the last minute addition of Gelorum living in World Race doesn't help.
