I hope X man doesn't get delusions of grandeur thinking he's "Racer X"!

I had already seen the preview. Looks cartoonish/video game-like, but not to say that's a bad thing.

Its actually based on a Japanese TV series. I just checked IMDB and saw some big names actors in it Christina Ricci, Susan Sarandon, John Goodman to name a few. The plot sounds like it might be fun

I have seen every episode many many times. My brother and I would be glued to the TV every day to watch it!

I still have my Mach 5 race car, Racer X, Spritle & Chim Chim "action" figures. Spritle & Chim Chim are in the truck of course

8-9 years ago they tried bringing this back as a big screen movie and they built 25 cars on Vette chassis'. Some were sold off when the rights fell thru.

Lots of CGI in this one to make it look like the Anime' of the 60's. Check out the Trailers on the site above. You'll need Apple QuickTime to view.

Racer X (aka Rex Racer) with & w/out his mask. Kinda looks like Frank huh
