Speed Racer: The Next Generation - The Fast Track is the second DVD release of Speed Racer:The Next Generation. It contains three episodes of the popular show to make up this DVD movie. The story this go-round starts with Zile Zazic's lab technician, Joel. He lets Zile take over the virtual track during the Redwood Rally. Zile has plans to mess up the race for Speed and kill him. Speed, being as smart as he is, mananges to figure out he's being done in and manages to survive the race. Speed decides to investigate the matter in the virtual track, with the help of Conor and Lucy. Unfortunately, the technician has implanted a virus in the virtual track, trapping Speed, his Mach 6 and Annalise Zazic. Speed and Annalise are forced to work together in order to survive, as the virus eats up the track. Conor and Lucy try to help but Conor accidentally loads the original Speed Racer enemy files and both are faced with the Mammoth Car and the X3. After they escape the track, the Mammoth Car, X3 enter the real world. To which, Annalise turns to Speed for help.

Extras include "The Animation of Speed Racer: The Next Generation" & "Sneak Peek w/ Jeff Gordon". One looks at how the show is created while the next has Jeff talking about how he grew up watching the original series, his racing history and about how it felt to lend a voice to Speed Racer: The Next Generation.

Overall, I really enjoyed this movie. Alot more so than the previous one. As I've said before, it probably won't appeal to fans of the original series but it will sure appeal to the younger set. Check it out!!!

This is the newer Speed racer where the son's of "our" speed racer meet & race on a virtual track.
my son loves the old & new Speed Racer/
