Not sure if they'll just rebrand entirely (including Canada), but apparently Central City is changing Red Racer to Red Betty due to a trademark lawsuit with Bear Republic (presumably over Racer 5).

Now that's annoying.

I've wanted to try Racer X for years... but suddenly I don't feel like purchasing ANY of their products right now.

The rebranding only applies in the US. Still Red Racer up here.
