Rick Wheeler wakes up 150 years in the future as a ghost in a machine, thrown into a world of illegal racing where the only way to stop actual evil is to win. The first arc meanders, but once the show commits to its premise, a dead cop racing against time and a supernatural crime empire, it builds toward something that respects both the speed and the stakes. By the finale, you understand why this show was shelved: it's too weird for the game's fans, too grounded for mecha spectacle, and too sincere about what it means to be resurrected into a fight you never volunteered for. Nobody remembers it now. They should.

Rick Wheeler was a police detective until a fatal crash during his pursuit of the criminal Zoda. Frozen in artificial cold sleep, he stays under for 150 years. Jody Summer and Dr. Stewart revive him in a future he has never known. The pair work with a band of good racers who try to stop prize money from reaching shady figures, chief among them the Dark Million Organization led by Black Shadow and Deathborn. Mecha, sci-fi and sports action shape his return to life in this unfamiliar era.
