I can't stand Crusher!

The only thing I don't like about this show is Crusher. He's not only selfish, but incredibly whiney, and constantly cheating. Sure, he never wins despite his cheating, but he often still gets what he wants, whether it's people sharing with him or his toy back after it gets stolen. If it were once in a while, fine, but every single episode has him like this. I hate it!

It's sad, because it's actually a great show in most other aspects, with lessons on things like magnetism, acceleration, and angles.

I also don't understand why Blaze has a driver. None of the other trucks have them. I actually don't remember ever seeing another human except him and a girl, but of course, she rides a purple 4 wheeler that can't talk; she doesn't get a monster machine!

I came to the boards today because it just occurred to me that Blaze is the only one with a human driver. ?!?! And he's only 8 years old too!

I can't stand the show in general. The only thing they do is speeding and littering and the plots seem aimed to 3 yo. The baddies are pretty stupid too.

And to think he's voiced by Trigon from Teen Tians/Teen Titans Go.

While I kinda agree, Crusher does need a win once in a while to show that cheating isn't needed, but this is impossible.

So many times Crusher is winning before he thinks about cheating, but Blaze no matter what the obstacle overcomes it with ease as he can change into any machine(something crusher cant do, crusher can only create external machines) and Blaze has the obvious Blazing speed.

Blaze should be forbidden from using blazing speed, the same way athletes are banned from using steroids. This would be a fair race. But its not. and the fact Blaze doesn't himself see anything wrong with using blazing speed makes him in my eyes worse than crusher and crushers actions somewhat understandable.

Why does Blaze have these "Powers" and others do not? Call it reflective of white male privilege where you don't necessarily have to work to win but have an advantage from the very start and always come out on top.
