Mellowbrook Drift (Kick Buttowski)

"Mellowbrook Drift" is the first half of the fourteenth episode in the first season of Kick Buttowski: Suburban Daredevil.

Plot
Kick challenges a physics-obsessed street racing crew, led by bullying nerd Ronaldo in a winner-take-all race on Mount Hurtsmore, which pits the laws of physics against the "laws of awesome". To defeat the competition, Kick and Gunther turn to school woodshop teacher One-Eyed Jackson, a legendary go-cart racer, for help.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) Kick and Gunther going down the road with their fast racing vehicle is very cool and impressive to watch at the start, along with them crashing three series of fences and Kick somehow rising back up very quickly after exploding when Ronaldo was about to win the race.
 * 2) The Mount Hurtsmore advertisement is pretty decent, with clever alliteration used as adjectives, along with how the mountain looks.
 * 3) Kick, Gunther and One-Eyed Jackson are likable characters, as One-Eyed Jackson helps Kick and Gunther make a legendary go-kart that'll beat Ronaldo in the race along with giving them hints of Ronaldo's cheating skills, and Kick never gets scared of Ronaldo's bullying tactics and challenges him to a winner-take-all race at Mount Hurtsmore, pitting the laws of physics against the "laws of awesome" - and of course, Gunther having Kick's back as always.
 * 4) Some funny moments, such as Gunther saying "slow down, Kick, you're gonna lose an eye, I mean a leg" during the race Kick and Ronaldo have, along with the fast speed unintentionally swapping the spectators' clothes.
 * 5) Some emotional moments, as well, such as Kick exploding on the walls for going too fast and not indicating, which has Gunther saying "you always were a loose cannon!"
 * 6) Speaking of which, the race Kick and Ronaldo have is top-notch and fun to watch.
 * 7) Good Ending: Although he exploded as mentioned above, Kick somehow managed to rise very quickly when Ronaldo was about to win the race, and so, Kick wins the race. Then, Ronaldo got confused on how Kick broke the laws of physics, and Kick said "laws were meant to be broken", Gunther and him look for One-Eyed Jackson and he suddenly vanishes...

The Only Bad Quality

 * 1) Ronaldo is quite an unlikable character, as his friends along with himself, tease Kick for having a poorly-made and broken go-kart. However, Kick did win the race as mentioned above thanks to the help of One-Eyed Jackson.

Reception

 * This episode, along with The Gift of Wacky, hold a rating of 5.6 out of 100 on IMDB.
