Turbo Teen is not without an adversary though as there is the mysterious, unseen monster truck driver called “ Dark Rider” (rider? I hardly know her). Honestly, how didn’t the lawyers for Scooby Doo jump all over this? Joining him on these adventures is smoke show girlfriend Pattie and his best friend Alex aka “T.T.” along with Brett’s dog Rusty. So Brett is technically a superhero now but since he’s not getting calls from the Avengers he starts to go on crime-fighting adventures a la Scooby Doo. I’m wondering now if this timeline exists in the Stranger Things universe because I’ve now found my dream crossover. Chase for a government agent named Cardwell. The molecular ray was invented by a scientist named Dr. AKA when they were at the drive-through and spilled a drink on his hood. Brett now has the ability to morph into the car when exposed to extreme heat and turns back into human form when exposed to cold. Instead of turning into the Incredible Hulk, Brett and his car are fused together. While in the lab he, and his sweet car, get hit with a molecular beam. Sorry, I mean a secret government laboratory. One night while driving, he swerves off the road during a thunderstorm and crashes into a SECRET GOVERNMENT LABORATORY.

OK, here’s a quick synopsis: Brett Matthews (which sounds like such a generic 80s rock star name) is your average teenager that somehow owns a sweet red sports car. So Turbo Teen is an often forgotten, short-lived, cartoon but used some of the best voice actors in the business and it’s worth taking a look back on. I also wish I could be a Dinobot so who the hell knows what was going on in my head. I think deep down as a young kid I wish I could transform into a car and Turbo Teen was that dream come to life. This was a decade when we loved anything to do with Trans Ams and sweet lookings sportscars -which were a huge reason behind the success of Knight Rider. Like the title of this blog says, it combined things that a little kid loved – cars and transforming into them. I don’t know what it was about Turbo Teen but it was a show that always stayed in my mind.


It told the story of Brett Matthews who had the ability to turn into a red sports car after he had been exposed to a molecular beam.

Turbo Teen was a Saturday morning cartoon that debuted in 1984 on ABC. You may remember a short-lived cartoon show from the 80s about a kid who could transform into a car
