A ★★★★ review of Redline (2009)
Part Whacky Racers, part F-Zero and with a little bit of Episode 1 pod racing thrown into the mix. If Nascar was full of robots and weird aliens instead of hillbillies. Great animation, fun soundtrack...

I know its common to use older actors to play high-schoolers, but I think the Buffy series was pushing it with this "18 year-old." To be fair he's been re-assembled post-mortem, but still.
