Taejo, Speed, and Racer X form a temporary alliance for the Casa Cristo in which Taejo wins, raising the company stock and and was thought to double the cost needed for a buyout of Togokahn Motors, and even though he was thought to have a file with the information to put Cruncher Block and Arnold Royalton behind bars, he refuses to hand it over after the race. After which, he declines his automatic invitation to compete in the Grand Prix, and sends Horuko Togokhan as a messenger to give Speed Racer the invitation and therefore he will compete instead of Taejo.
