In the pilot show (called “Lowbrow” and aired on a Cartoon Network Weekend Summerfest),
two video-game gearheads (Coop and Jamie) find a time-traveling robot in a junkyard and trick
him out with a new engine, some new body work, a 671 Jimmy Huffer, and an eight-ball gear
shift before realizing that they (along with the redhead, Kiva, from the future) must now
protect present-day Earth from the evil aliens who enslaved the planet in the future and are
now tracking the Megas back through time.
After the pilot, the Cartoon Network picked up
the show for 26 new episodes.
