Human characters include:

• Jack Striker, team leader and driver of Motoblade and Thunderblade
• Johnny, team marksman and driver of Swag Blaster, vehicle designed for offroading
• Rhino and B.B, a brother and sister duo, respectively pilot Ram Slammer and Ram Hammer, vehicles designed for brute force 
• Zoom, team scout, driver of Flashfire, vehicle designed for speed
• Lab, technician and innovator, pilots Thunderblade in the comic 

In 2018, a former Mainframe Entertainment employee/director for the AcceleRacers series confirmed that the Stunt Strikers series was originally modeled to be a continuation to AcceleRacers (effectively making it the last known official iteration to AcceleRacers), but was modified once there was a direction change at Mattel. If the series would have been released as a TV series, it would have featured a character that looked like Vert Wheeler, but storywise would have no connection to the established AcceleRacers narrative.
