USA Today has up a fun little sneak peek of all the crazy driving goodness that you’ll see when Speed Racer hits theatres. The movie is written and directed by the Wachowski brothers who did all the The Matrix movies and from the look of the shots, things seem pretty wild.

But Racer, says producer Joel Silver, has a trump card — or two, actually — in Andy and Larry Wachowski, the gadget-happy siblings who were huge fans of the TV series, one of the first Japanese cartoons to make it to the USA.

“The effects are beyond belief. We called it ‘car fu,’ because it was like kung fu with the cars,” Silver says. “We couldn’t have made this movie until right now.”

The trailer for Speed Racer will premiere on Entertainment Tonight Thursday and I’m sure I’ll have it here soon after.
