I loved that cartoon! Years ago they built that car and it was auctioned off at Barret Jackson. I think this was before Speed channle and I saw it on ESPN. And the guy that did Speed's voice drove it across the block.

Can hardly wait to see if they are going to have the GRX!

That car was so BAD, that you have to suck in special "gas" to drive it.[sm=nxsmile.gif]

Josh,

Speed Racer was in reruns in the 1980s (as well as the '70s) at least where I live.

And I know they re-released it as at lesat twice.
