Mach 6 (T-180)


 * For other uses of "Mach 6", see Mach 6.

The Mach 6 is a state-of-the-art T-180 racing car driven by Speed Racer in the World Racing League.

After the "accident" during the Fuji Helexicon race, Speed, Pops, Sparky and family are left to build a new one from scratch to race in the WRL Grand Prix. The car used in the film was designed to look like an Indy car or Formula 1 racer.

Technical Details
This car features auto-jacks like in all T-180 racers, but it features case-hardened dampeners for added vertical thrust, which means much higher jumps.

Mach 6's powerplant is a single-forge Bernoulli Convergenator, which is claimed by Pops to be superior to the GRX's inter-positive transponder ("Transponder schmonder," he said, "You want real kick, you go Bernoulli.") This claim was proven when Speed ran a patch through the starter to the Convergenator, shifts the Mach 6 to fifth gear, and jump-starts it, making for an extraordinary burst of speed.

It also features a custom-designed suspension system whose components are derived from biological sources for a degree of flexibility not seen in factory-built wheels. The Mach 6's chassis is a hand-welded nitronium cage with octovalve fasteners, along with a outer shell reinforced with sub molecular metallitizers.
