Speed race on the short stretch, and Herbie in an endurance run.

No way. Herbie would run circles around KITT!
Hmmm.. should we add WonderBuggy to the race?

The winner would clearly be Speed Racer in his Mark V, because that's a cross-language pun in Japanese and English, which is better than a weak play on words in English any day of the week.
(The number 5 in Japanese is "go".)

(b) I love that you not only parametrize your deity, but you do it in Perl. Perl truly does transcend all mere gods.

To borrow a phrase from Samuel Jackson, by way of Tarantino:
Herbie's got personality, and personality goes a long way...

The Mach V would use its buzzsaws and cut that pacifist Herbie in half...
