Wow, Dash, the Twin Mill looks amazing

for tonight's carnival!

Thanks, Spark.

One more coat of polish

and it'll be ready

for my epic opening stunt.

Once I land the stunt, all of these

super-cool, colorful fireworks

will go off and

the carnival can officially begin.

Hey, Dash, we can finish polishing

the Twin Mill while you get ready.

That would be so helpful, Coop.

As long as you're all very careful.

Yep, the Twin Mill is my favorite car.

I raced this baby when I was a camper,

and won the Ultimate Garage.

You can count on us!

We'll take great care of the Twin Mill.

Blech! Why does the city want to

celebrate Dash Wheeler and her Twin Mill

when they could celebrate me?

Idea. If I steal the Twin Mill,

there won't be a carnival!

Oh, Rearview, you are a genius!

Great job, everyone.

The sooner we finish,

the sooner we can start

the carnival and celebrate Dash.

[gasps] Did you say "Dash?"

I'm Dash Wheeler's number one fan!

Ooh! It's the Twin Mill!

I haven't been this close to the car

since Dash won the Ultimate Garage.

Whoa! You were there?

Who did Dash beat in that race?

Funny you should ask, because

[straining]

I glued this too tight. Ouch!

She beat me! Ow.

[all]

Professor Rearview?

That's right! Now,

I'm gonna steal the Twin Mill,

and the carnival will be cancelled!

[laughs]

[engine revs]

Rearview tricked us

with that majestic mustache!

-Huh?

-Ah!

Forget his fake facial hair,

we gotta get the Twin Mill!

[all]

Challenge accepted!

[upbeat music]

I choose the Mach Speeder!

I choose the Glory Chaser!

I choose the Veloci-Racer!

I choose the Car-De-Asada!

I choose the Mad Manga!

I choose the Solid Muscle!

There's the professor. Step on it!

Wow, for someone who hates cars,

Rearview's really fast.

And look at his drifting skills!

[Rearview laughing]

We can't let him get away.

Quick, take that turn and keep up!

Just give up. You'll never catch me.

Oh, yes, we will!

Maybe you forgot,

but we're Hot Wheels Racers.

I didn't forget.

But what you don't know is,

I was also a camper

at the Ultimate Garage! See?

-[all gasp]

-What?

You had way more hair back then!

[Professor Rearview]

When Dash beat me in the final race,

she won the Ultimate Garage

and had a big victory party.

-You know what I got? Nothing!

-[all gasp]

That's why I'm cancelling this carnival,

so no one celebrates Dash

or her Twin Mill ever again!

Racers, we can't let Dash down.

We have to rescue the Twin Mill.

Coop, Mac, if we use the ramp,

we can stop Professor Rearview

at the tire shop.

Floor it!

[racers cheering]

End of the road, Rearview.

Give us the Twin Mill.

There's nowhere to go. It's over.

It's not over until I say it is.

Especially when I have this.

Oops, wrong pocket. Hold on. A-ha!

[deep inhale]

[whistles]

[bat squeaking]

[Sidecar]

Ah! It's a giant monster bat!

Yes, it is.

It's also my ticket outta here.

Ta-ta, racers.

Enjoy your cancelled carnival.

[laughs]

Rearview's getting away!

If we don't stop him,

the carnival will be ruined.

Let's go!

[bat screeching]

Huh? Where is Rearview?

It's so dark out, it's hard to see.

Let's turn on our headlights.

[screeches]

Ah!

Whoa, the lights are scaring the bat!

Of course!

Since bats only come out at night,

they don't like bright lights,

like the sun or

Fireworks! I know how to stop this bat

and save Dash's Twin Mill.

Right, but we have to hurry.

The carnival is supposed to start soon.

It's all good, Brights. I got this.

[screeching]

Kick it into high gear

We've got the drive ♪

Hey, Rearview, are you sure

you were the fastest camper?

'Cause you were lookin' a little slow

back there.

How dare you! Of course,

I was the fastest and still am.

Psh. Yeah, right.

I bet you couldn't even beat me

in a race to the Ultimate Garage.

[laughs] You don't think I could beat you?

Put me down and get those other racers.

I'm gonna show Coop

what speed really looks like.

[screeches]

-As you silly kids say

-[revs engine]

let's race!

[powers up]

Racers, I'm bringing Rearview

back to the Ultimate Garage.

What? Why would you do that?

Yeah, that sounds like a bad idea.

You'll see. But you need to make sure

the bat is there, too.

Well, that shouldn't be a problem,

because it's chasing us!

[screeches]

[Dash]

Okay, Squeakers, all I gotta do now

is stretch, and we will be ready

to do the stunt and kick off the carnival.

[bat screeching]

[laughs] Finish line up ahead! Woo-hoo!

-[gasps]

-[Speedy] Oh, no!

Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah!

Who's the fastest? I'm the fastest!

I won! Ha-ha! First place, for me!

I told you I was the fastest!

You might have some speed,

but I have the Twin Mill.

Huh? No. No, no, no!

Bat, stop that car!

[screeches]

Sorry, professor, but it's time

to get this party started.

Double Speed. Activate!

[powers up]

[crackling]

[Professor Rearview]

Gah!

Go, Hot Wheels!

Yeah!

[crowd gasps]

Whoa!

Woo-hoo!

Yeah!

-[cheering]

-[fireworks popping]

[Spark] It's working! The bright fireworks

are scaring the bat.

[Professor Rearview]

Whoa!

Not again!

You defeated me this time,

but I'll get the last laugh

when Cruise beats you all

at the next race!

[laughs]

-[thuds]

-Ow!

Hey, watch where you're flying!

Hey, hey, Hot Wheels City!

The fireworks went off,

so you know what that means.

-It's time for the carnival!

-[cheering]

-Nice one!

-You did it!

-Way to get big air!

-Woo!

Way to go, Coop!

Coop, that was epic! I'm impressed.

Dash, Professor Rearview

stole the Twin Mill, but we got it back.

Right. Plus, we learned you and Rearview

were campers together

at the Ultimate Garage Racing Camp.

And you beat him!

[chuckles] I sure did.

And that's why I know you all

have what it takes to win the next race.

But before we get to that,

who's ready for the carnival?

-Yay!

-Ready!

-Come on, I'll race ya.

-[Squeakers squeaks]

[racers cheering]

[Speedy]

Coming up next

nothing out-muscles this muscle car!

[racers]

I choose the Rodger Dodger!

Hot Wheels! Let's race! ♪

Whoo! It's time for the next race.

And it's different than any before.

Today, you'll be racing in tunnels

deep down below Hot Wheels City,

and on tracks sky high above it.

The winner will receive five badges.

Are you ready to race?

-Let's do it!

-Yeah, we're ready!

Cruise has ten Flame Badges and

the rest of us have two.

We have to win today.

If one of us doesn't win,

it may be impossible to catch up.

Which means Cruise would win

the Ultimate Garage

and Professor Rearview will destroy it.

Which for the record, would be really,

really, really bad!

I understand you're all nervous,

but when the road gets tough,

a Hot Wheels racer always stays calm.

[all deep breath]

Challenge accepted!

[exciting music]

I choose the Rodger Dodger!

I choose the Shark Bite!

I choose the Tricera-Truck!

I choose the Buns of Steel.

I choose the Mach Speeder!

No sign of Cruise.

Maybe she's worried about the race, too.

Huh?

The only thing I'm worried about

is whether I'll beat you by a lot

or a real lot.

Not gonna happen, Cruise. Not today.

Hot Wheels!

Let's race! ♪

Hey, Hot Wheels Fans!

Your favorite reporter is here alongside

Me! [laughs evilly]

Professor Rearview?

What're you doing here?

And where did you get that microphone?

From home. I host karaoke on Wednesdays.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I want to watch my daughter, Cruise,

crush the competition!

[racers cheering]

I think it's time I slip on by.

Octopus Ink Blast. Activate!

[upbeat music]

Whoa!

[tires screeching]

This is too easy.

Snake Slither. Activate!

[upbeat music]

[gasps]

Hey, Coop, I'm gonna blow by you

and take the lead!

Shark Speed. Activate!

[Professor Rearview]

And Cruise speeds into the tunnels first.

Coop and the other racers are way behind.

[laughs]

See you at the finish line.

If I don't get too bored waiting there.

Ugh.

Coop, dude, you've gotta stay calm.

There's plenty of race left.

I know. But we can't let Cruise

win the race or the Ultimate Garage.

I gotta pass her.

[engine revving]

Ha! Not gonna happen.

Ah!

[tires squealing]

Aah! I'm spinning out!

Whoa-whoa-whoa!

[Spark]

Hit the brakes!

[all yelling]

Huh? [gasps]

[gasps]

Looks like Coop lost his cool and

cost his pals some serious speed.

But it's great for Cruise.

She has the lead as she exits the tunnels!

[Speedy] Cruise uses the speed booster

to take the tracks into the sky.

[laughs] Look out, clouds, here I come.

Woo-hoo!

[Speedy] Coop is in second, followed by

Brights, Spark, Axle, Mac and Sidecar.

[racers cheering]

Oh, yeah!

Whoa!

It's like an epic rollercoaster

in the sky!

And there's Cruise.

C'mon, Coop, you can still win this race.

Good gears! Coop is tearing up the track

and is gaining on Cruise!

And Spark, Brights, Axle, Mac and Sidecar

are still in it too.

[laughs] Like it'll matter.

Coop will lose his cool

and Cruise will win!

Not bad, Coop.

But you're forgetting one thing.

The Street Shrieker has the powers

of my dad's monsters.

I just have to stay calm and race.

Woo-hoo!

[Speedy]

Whoa-h*!

Coop hit the ramp and

caught up to Cruise.

[gasps] That's impossible!

No, that's my son! Go, Coop!

[Speedy] Coop and Cruise

are in the home stretch.

Who will win today's race

and the five Flame Badges?

-I will!

-I will!

[both]

No, I will!

[gasps] Cruise is pulling ahead!

I don't know if I can keep up.

Yes, you can, Coop.

Remember what Dash told us.

When the road gets tough,

a Hot Wheels racer always stays calm.

This race is too important

to lose my cool.

Ha! Let's see how calm you are

when I use all my car's powers!

Snake Slither. Activate!

[exciting music]

Looks like I'm catchin' up!

[Speedy]

Pumping pistons!

Coop has steered his way

out of second place and into the top spot!

Ugh! Soaring Bat. Activate!

Sorry. This is a no fly zone.

[Speedy]

The finish line is coming up!

[grunting in frustration]

Cruise! Destroy Coop's dream of winning

just as I will destroy

the Ultimate Garage.

You got it, Dad.

I'm winning this race

even if I gotta knock Coop off the tracks.

[grunts] You missed!

[Cruise]

Ah!

The Rodger Dodger

has a special power, too.

Super Slalom. Activate!

Go, Hot Wheels!

Now, it's time to cross the finish line.

Woo-hoo!

-[cheering]

-Way to go, Coop!

[Cruise]

Whoa!

Wh What? It It can't be!

-I'm so mad!

-[stomping]

Oh, look, my feet are stomping.

Are you happy now?!

I'm stomping mad! I'm Whoa!

-[thuds]

-[cat screeches]

Hey, professor, maybe you should be

more like Coop and keep calm. Ha!

Congratulations on a fantastic finish,

Coop!

I'm proud to award you

five Flame Badges!

-[Brights] Way to go!

-[Axle] Nice job, Coop!

I'm only three badges behind Cruise now.

We still have a chance

to win the Ultimate Garage!

[Cruise]

You might've won this race,

but I'm on the top of the leaderboard.

Next time,

I'll be back and better than ever.

[soft music]

You lost today,

but you won't lose again,

because I've added

a little something special to your car.

I call them Track Blasters!

Whoa. With these, the Ultimate Garage

will be ours for sure!

Yes!

[both laughing evilly]

Okay, we can stop laughing now.

Fine.

[exciting music]

[Coop] Track Blasters?

How are we gonna stop Cruise now?

[Cruise]

See ya later, slow pokes!

[Coop]

A Hot Wheels racer never gives up!

It's time to put the pedal

to the metal to save the Ultimate Garage.

[racer]

Woo-hoo!

[Coop] Buckle up!

Season Three is coming soon!
