You guys are racers, right? I saw you on the news.

I'm a racer myself, you know.

Though I must say I'm more known as a mechanic.

I have a partner named Trava.

Trava?

Let me go!

Stop trashing the place! Take it outside!

Trava!

Your partner?

The one who's beaten up, yes.

Which one's beaten up?

What the hell did you do that for?

You started it.

Sh*t! Here he goes!

It's your fault, damn it.

You betrayed the army.

Is the tough guy crying?

That's Little Deyzuna.

He used to be in the army with us.

He becomes impossibly strong when he cries.

Having a race in Roboworld!

You're just doing that to make me suffer!

That's bullshit!

It's nothing personal and you know it!

Liar!

Here comes more trouble.

Well, if it ain't Machine Head Tetsuzin himself.

For real?

Yep.

He's Mr. REDLINE. The fastest man in the galaxy.

Outta my way.

What did you say?

I said, outta my way!

You think you can order me around?

I'm just telling you to move.

That's an order, you moron!

Fine. I'll just go around you then.

That's what you get when you mess with me!

The hell with the race!

Sonoshee!

This way!

What?

Roboworld forces.

You're a hard man to find.

Co-Colonel Volton!

No one gave you an order to leave the base!

I told you to stay put, didn't I?

Look what you did!

Too bad you had to come all the way here to save his sorry ass.

Stay there!

This is a demilitarized zone. We won't stand for this.

So what?

Huh?

I said, so what?

Are you hard of hearing or something?

Oh, I can hear you fine.

I just don't need your permission.

Doesn't matter. I got what I came for.

I have my orders to use force on the day of the race.

Jesus...

The meanest troops in the galaxy!

Our President has generously offered to show up at your silly race.

You should try to be good targets in return.

I suppose having your heads can wait.

Hey, you!

Don't try something stupid.

You're blocking the ventilation.

Beat it.

You've got seven guns pointed at you.

That'll solve my...

Ouch.

Aw!

That hurts...

How's your head?

I'll live.

What were you thinking?

Those bastards were really trying my patience.

Couldn't help it.

They screwed up your plan, too.

I guess you're right.

Thanks for this. You really are sweet, aren't you?

It's a stupid nickname for the fans,

''Cherry Boy Hunter'' Sonoshee McLaren.

Cherry Boy? What's that?

Haven't you read the paper?

That nickname of yours made quite the headline.

That's stupid!

Don't look at me.

What did you do that for?

Why the sour face?

Cherry Boy Hunter...

Can I ask you something?

What?

Why do you do it?

What about you?

Me? Not much to tell.

Then don't ask me.

Sorry.

C'mon! Out with it!

I mean...

It's really no big deal.

Really.

I see.

Suit yourself.

You need more muscles if you wanna take those bastards.

Good night now.

Night.

Hey, you dropped this!

Oh, well.

Go faster! Go!

All right! Go for it!

That was a close one!

Is she okay?

You did great! You drive like the wind!

You gave all you have. Just forget about it.

I'm gonna race in the REDLINE someday!

What?

I've busted my ass for it everyday.

I can't afford to waste my time like this!

I'm not like you amateurs who're all talk.

Why don't you quit watching and get out here on the track with the rest of us?

Wow...

I bet she doesn't remember.

JP!

I'm telling you, I can't work with this jerk.

Why?

Your pal here says he doesn't like the engine I got.

You sure about him?

It's REDLINE!

We need something bigger. A lot bigger.

We're talking about the race here!

A man is driving!

This guy's talking about a goddamn TRZ Airmaster!

Seriously?!

Go ahead, laugh!

It's a crapshoot! Sure it's got power, but it's unstable as hell.

A four-cycle TRZ Airmaster!

All it needs is a dose of Frisbee magic.

Like hell it does!

Besides, JP's driving it.

You think he doesn't have what it takes?

You're the one I'm not sure about.

Who the hell do you think you are?

Showing up with all that money, then you start ordering me around!

Just get him what he wants.

Not you too!

Get him what he needs.

You're getting yourself killed.

As far as the design goes, Frisbee's in charge.

We're a team, right?

Ha! That's all in the past.

You know how long it'll take to get one of those monsters?

It's your job to get what we need in time for the race.

You're in charge of getting us the engine.

Some things just can't be done.

Old man... please.

Let me race in his machine.

Fine, you fool... It's gonna cost you double though.

Thanks, old man. I owe you one.

Two days away

Pretty fast.

Not as many as I expected.

The ones with money don't come here.

They like using the private tracks.

I get it. This is the place for broke racers.

Don't worry. Looks like the engine will make it in time.

He'll get it. He always comes through.

That's our old man.

I talked to Inuki, by the way.

Same drill as last time.

Stay in the last till the third quarter to get your odds down.

Then make your move in the last quarter.

Frisbee.

Once I'm behind the wheel, I'm the boss, right?

I'd rather find another way to pay for the engine.

You can get a spare engine, but not a spare life.

You really have no choice.

We're all in this together.

That includes falling hot sparks and chip crumbs.

An underground mine

That's it for today!

Let's go place our REDLINE bets.

Yeah!

An underground casino

Buy No.4. It's a sure thing. It's the current favorite.

Give me 100 on No.4.

How about you?

I'll take 150 on Gori Rider.

You sure? He always comes in fifth.

It won't hurt.

50 on No.2 please.

Don't be stingy. Bet hard!

50's good.

I'll take 300 on JP.

You're betting on a long shot, huh?

The odds'll be 25,000 to 1.

I know.

What the hell? What's this?!

Break up this gathering immediately!

Shut up!

Give me money!

This is a violation of law.

Next up is today's segment featuring Crab Sonoshee.

The new engine can dodge missiles by minimizing the heat source.

On an infrared camera, you can see it's much smaller.

Now the missiles' heat sensor...

My butt's on camera!

Looks like Crab Sonoshee's gearing up for the big race.

The man of sonic speed.

Since his first win at the fourth REDLINE,

this invincible king's been at the top for 20 years.

The machine linked racer who keeps altering himself along with his machine ''God Wing."

The irrefutable champion of REDLINE!

The king of kings, Mr. REDLINE: Machine Head Tetsuzin!

Good evening all. I'm Machine Head Tetsuzin.

Well, for me... how shall I put it?

I'd say I'm in a different league compared to the others.

'Cause in my case, I'm a part of my machine.

For the others, it's "Me and my wheels."

But in my case, It's "I am my wheels," you see?

He can't underestimate his rivals, though.

The royal family's Boiboi and Bosbos make their return,

with Princess Supergrass, the last heir to magical superpowers.

This time around, they've sealed off their magic.

The carefree beauty pair - Super Boins.
