The New Adventures of Speed Racer was a short-lived update of the classic Speed Racer cartoon series. This new Americanized version did not catch on and only lasted a single 13 episode season (the first episode was entitled "The Mach 5's First Trial"). A new theme song was written. The show was animated by Fred Wolf.
The "New Adventures" part of the title comes from official documents used for TV listings. The show itself is referred to onscreen as simply "Speed Racer". Coincidentally, Speed Racer X is known in Brazil as 'As Novas Aventuras de Speed Racer', which literally translates into 'The New Adventures of Speed Racer'.
