Superman and The Flash do a race for charity. However, Lex Luthor is using their speed to power a suit that allows him to control speed, designed by Chronos.
This episode contains examples of:
- Disproportionate Retribution: Lex Luthor turns on Chronos because of his annoying voice.
- Mythology Gag: The plot is identical to that of the Superman: The Animated Series episode "Speed Demons", where the tracking devices placed on Superman and the Flash for their charity race were booby-trapped to siphon the energy the runners generate to power the villain's weaponry. As a bonus, the Flash is voiced by Charlie Schlatter in both series.
- Rapid Aging: Lex uses his speed suit to age Chronos into an old man in about a few seconds. He also does the same with Cyborg. They return to normal when Lex loses the Speed Force power.
- Shout-Out: When Superman is about to run in order to provide the Flash extra with Speed Force, the Flash says "May the Speed Force be with you."
