Trivia
- Hugo's name is a pun on the term "You go fast".
- Hugo Fast was supposed to be released under the name "Hugo Fast" in the 1:55 Scale Die-Cast in the "World of Cars" series packaging. However, this version got canceled for unknown reasons. The newer "World of Cars: Race O Rama" packaging named him "Nitroade Pitty".
- Also despite getting a diecast from Mattel, he was supposedly going to be released earlier in the World of Cars line due to him being shown on the back of Fred's packaging, but was instead released in the Race O Rama line a year after.
