Speed Racer

Speed Racer began as a Japanese "Manga" entitled Mach Go Go Go created by Tatsunoko Productions in 1966.

In 1967, the 52 episodes of the series were dubbed into English and syndicated nationally on television. For nearly 20 years, Speed Racer ran in the afternoons five days a week. During this time the world of Speed Racer was deeply etched into the memories of millions of youngsters who would rush home from school to see the show.

Speed later enjoyed a comeback on TV in the 90's on MTV, and then ran for almost 5 years on the Cartoon Network.

Nearly three full generations have grown up with Speed. Today, Speed, Trixie, Racer X, and Pops hold a warm place in the hearts of 45 million fans.
