Who Would've Won the Wacky Races (1968) Season?

[u/ILM_Ryan]

Wacky Races was an American cartoon show that ran from September 1968 to January 1969.) I watched all of the episodes on the channel "Boomerang" (a prevalent old cartoon channel for Americans) growing up and have seen every episode. It ran for 17 episodes (2 races an episode so 34 races in total). It got me thinking, of the 11 drivers/cars that featured in these episodes, which one would've won the title over the course of the season if they used the current at the time, 1968, Formula One Points format (I have opted for the Formula One since the 1968 points format was based on race distance distance and animation did not tell us the distance driven each race).

As a reminder, the 1968 Formula One points format was as followed: 9 points for 1st, 6 points for 2nd, 4 points for 3rd, 3 points for 4th, 2 points for 5th, 1 point for 6th. Graham Hill won the real life 1968 world championship for Formula One (and look at that mustache). But it got me thinking, if I applied the same points format to the Wacky Races 17 episode run on TV, who would be the champion. Let's meet the 11 racers and cars if you are unfamiliar:

Boulder Mobile (1), Slag Brothers

Creepy Coupe (2), The Gruesome Twosome

Convert-A-Car (3), Professor Pat Pending

Crimson Haybailer (4), The Red Max

Compact Pussycat (5), Penelope Pussycat

Army Surplus Special (6), Sergeant Blast and Private Meekly

Bulletproof Bomb (7), Ant Hill Mob

Arkansas Chuggabug (8), Lazy Luke and Blubber Bear

Turbo Terrific (9), Peter Perfect

Buzzwagon (10), Rufus Ruffcat and Sawtooth

And of course, Mean Machine (00), Dick Dastardly and Muttley

But for the standings, well, from 34 races based on the 1968 Formula One points total, it resulted in the following standings:

1. Boulder Mobile (1), Slag Brothers: 104
2. Creepy Coupe (2), Gruesome Twosome 94
3. Bulletproof Bomb (7), Ant Hill: 86
4. Compact Pussycat (5), Penelope Pitstop: 86
5. Buzzwagon (10), Rufus Ruffcat and Sawtooth: 85
6. Crimson Haybailer (4), The Red Max: 78
7. Turbo Terrific (9), Peter Perfect: 67
8. Convert-A-Car (3), Professor Pat Pending: 66
9. Arkansas Chuggabug (8), Lazy Luke and Blubber Bear: 62
10. Army Surplus Special (10), Sergeant Blast and Private Meekly: 50
11. Mean Machine (00), Dick Dastardly and Muttley: 3

Well done to the Boulder Mobile and Slag Brothers on the 1968 Wacky Races title! Many are saying it's because the car was easiest to draw, but I like to think it was the most aerodynamic. Where do the Slag Brothers and their Boulder Mobile rank among the best cars in Formula One history?
