Synopsis
The big cheater and rotten sportsman in this stock-car race is Sweet Willy Rollbar ("the meanest racer in race car driving"), who, in hiw Chrome Fang Panther-Prong, seems more than a match for even Tom... until Gertie aims a gun at Tom's two spare tires in the back.

Production notes
Tom Slick was the coolest race driver this side of Speed Racer. Well, maybe not the coolest, but at least the funniest. With his never-fail optimism, Tom would calmly tell his girlfriend, "There's no such word as failure in auto racing, Marigold." Good-guy Tom would repeatedly have to face cheating competitors like the Teutonic Baron Otto Matic. Leading the crowd's trademark "Boo!" and "Yeah!" was Tom's sassy grandmother, Gertie.
