Mach GoGoGo, the 1967 Tatsunoko Production series that introduced color to the studio's catalog, will make its Disney Channel debut on August 7. The channel will air four episodes back-to-back each weekday from midnight to 2 a.m.
The show follows young racer Mifune Go, who dreams of becoming a Grand Prix driver while piloting the super machine Mach Go. His older brother Kenichi, a genius racer, has gone missing, and Go races under the watch of his family and a mysterious masked rival who pushes him to grow both as a driver and as a person.
Mach GoGoGo gained lasting fame abroad under the title Speed Racer, and was remade in 1997 and adapted into a live-action film in 2008. The Disney Channel run marks the first time the series has aired on that network.
