History

After each crime, he would use a modern sport vehicle for his getaways. Racer's car was even faster than the Batmobile, but it was soon revealed that the real Batmobile was being repaired. Meanwhile, Batman used a phony replica of the vehicle, which gave Racer the advantage. When the real Batmobile was fixed, Batman captured Racer in a matter of seconds.
