A/N: My sisters, JoAnn, and Lori (AKA autonwallyluvr) have all pitched in to come up with all of these. So I have to thank them for helping me.
Disclaimer: Speed Racer is the property of Speed Racer Enterprise. This was only done for fun and is in no way an insult to you truly obsessed Speed Racer fans out there, of which we are as well :)
You are a truly obsessed Speed Racer fan when…
1. While driving down the freeway, you imagine yourself to be in a race car, on a race track, and in a race, until the cops pull you over for speeding!
2. You mistakenly call the officer that pulled you over "Inspector Detector".
3. While looking at the word Sprite, you think of Spritle.
4. You are constantly thinking of the Mach 5 and/or Speed Racer (Be it either the character, the old cartoon or the 2008 movie).
5. Your answer sheet to a test spells out "Speed Racer" or "Go, Speed, Go".
6. Every chimpanzee you see, you think of "Chim-Chim".
7. Every black X on a white background (which is anything on normal white paper), or a white X on a black background, reminds you of Racer X.
8. Any black and white checkered object reminds you of the checkered flag that signals the end of a race.
9. You start calling your father "Pops".
10. You ask your father to build you the Mach 5.

A/N 2: If you can think of any others that my sisters and I have not thought of, please review and tell me. I'll add it and (of course) give you credit for it. Please review and tell me what you think. No flames please or we'll use it to fuel the Mach 5. :) Please also take a moment to check out my poll! Thanks a bunch everyone! Much love, Crazy.
