Episode 1
Team Suzaku is an amateur IG team who would love to compete in the famed IG-1 Grand Prix but ever since the sporting event became a boring and repetitive event, what with the same teams competing every year with nearly no surprises, they have wanted to compete not just for the sake of competition but to add some new blood to the event. Now it looks like things are about to change and luck (or so it seems) is on their side. The defending champions have been taken out of IG-1 Grand Prix 2035 and a random drawing to choose a team as their replacements reveals that Team Suzaku will take their place with young 14-year-old Takeshi Noah as their leader.

IGPX Immortal Grand Prix (2003)
In the year 2035 Team Suzaku and Team Sledge Mamma are preparing to meet in the final round of the 12th Immortal Grand-1 Prix (IG1 or IGPX). Takeshi leads Team Suzaku, which is made-up of a group of young amateur pilots who must make the most of their limited funds and weaponry in order to prepare for the competition designed for professionals.
This series served as the pilot to the full IGPX: Immortal Grand Prix, each episode is only 5 mintues or less long. A key difference between the two is that this series featured combat mecha competition rather than racing mecha.
