Notes/trivia

Instead of saying "meddling kids," Jimmy says "meddling grown-ups" since he is a kid (a prepubescent child even) himself.
It isn't explicity made clear, but Ricky Burdick was likely seen next to Mike when the gang took the former's car to save Fred.
This episode was included in Cartoon Network's Scooby-Doo! Back to School Marathon (August 10-11, 2013).
A "Daphanatic" from Scooby-Doo! Frankencreepy, has a photo of Daphne wearing her race car outfit.

Animation mistakes and/or technical glitches

None known.

Inconsistencies/continuity errors and/or goofs/oddities

In the opening credits, Chuck Sheetz is misspelt as "Chuck Sheets".
Daphne shows an unprecedented amount of knowledge of race car mechanics.
A point is always made of keeping the boys and girls in separating sleeping rooms. A Scooby-Doo Valentine even has them living in separate houses, yet here, the Mystery Machine has been modified to have them all sleep in it at the same time.
Where exactly are Jimmy and Cindy's real parents?
