What happens

Yogi's Space Race is a 90-minute American animated television series, and the third entry in the Yogi Bear franchise, produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. Thirteen episodes were broadcast on NBC from September 9, 1978, to December 2, 1978, and featured the following four segments: Yogi's Space Race: Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Jabberjaw and several new characters participating in intergalactic racing competitions. Galaxy Goof-Ups: Yogi Bear, Scare Bear, Huckleberry Hound, and Quack-Up as four intergalactic police officers. The Buford Files: Buford is a sleepy bloodhound who solves mysteries in Fenokee County with two teenagers named Cindy Mae and Woody. Not to be confused with The Rockford Files. The Galloping Ghost: Nugget Nose is a ghost miner who is a guardian to Wendy and Rita at the Fuddy Dude Ranch. When Galaxy Goof-Ups was given its own half-hour timeslot on November 4, 1978, Yogi's Space Race was reduced to 60 minutes. In early 1979, the Space Race segment was also spun off in its own half-hour series from February 3 to March 3, 1979. The series was later aired in reruns on USA Cartoon Express, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, Boomerang and MeTV Toons. Yogi's Space Race was referenced in Jellystone! (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
