Ep. 10: Speed faces a deadly mountain curve and treacherous chasms during the dangerous race
Aired on June 4, 1967
Speed struggles to prepare his Mach 5 and barely arrives at the start. His brakes fail on a sharp mountain curve, requiring Sparky and Trixie to rescue him. Upon rejoining the race, the drivers encounter heavy rain that destroys road overhangs, forcing them to leap across dangerous chasms. While Snake Oiler and Racer X successfully clear the gaps, Speed’s vehicle crashes into a canyon during the attempt. Amid the wreckage and fatalities caused by the storm, only a small doll from his younger brother Spritle remains as evidence of Speed’s presence.
