It was a perfect morning in everyone favourite sleepy Oregon town. Dipper and Mabel arrived at the local grocery store in the old Mystery Shack golf cart. "You stay here. I'll be only a minute" says Dipper. Mabel nods her head as Dipper runs into the store. At that moment Wendy is walking by. "Oh hey Wendy. What are you doing here" says Mabel. "Oh hey Mabel. I was uhh. Okay fine there was no one in the gift shop so I cut work for a sec. Please don't tell Stan" she says. "No problem. Your secrets safe with me" says Mabel. Wendy smiles.
"So what are you doing here in the golf cart" she asks. "Oh we ran out of milk so Stan sent me and Dipper to get some more. Dipper's just inside buying it. Also the golf cart was quicker then walking" says Mabel. Wendy laughs. "Yep. I can't blame you there. That old cart sure is reliable" she replies. It was funny. While non of them were old enough to drive yet, no one ever questioned why they would be driving around in the golf cart. Gravity Falls really did have odd laws. It was a convince to all of them though.
Suddenly the sound of a very powerful engine could be heard. "Hey what's that" says Mabel. At that moment from around the corner another golf cart appears. It's the same size as the Mystery cart but it was much newer and looked like it had been modified by some race car team meets rich people. It soon was pretty obvious why it was that way once Mabel got a glimpse of the driver. Pacifica.
She pulled up in front of Mabel. "Oh I'm sorry. This spot is for good looking golf carts only" she says smugly. "Really Pacifica, a golf cart. What did your limo driver quit on you" Mabel fires back with. "No. My parents keep using the limo whenever I need it so they bought me this golf cart so I can get around myself" Pacifica says. "Well I must say it looks pretty cool" says Wendy. Mabel glares at her. "Sorry" Wendy whispers to her.
"Thanks. Its got all the good stuff. A radio, gold rims, leather seating and best of all, its way faster then your old pile of junk golf cart Mabel" Pacifica says. That was the final straw for Mabel. "Oh ya! I bet my golf cart could do circles around yours any day" she screams back. Pacifica looks at her with a serious look. "Oh really, are you trying to say something there Mabel. Like maybe, A RACE!"
Mabel ponders for a second, then she looks back at Pacifica. "Ya that's right. A race. You. Me. Tomorrow at the Mystery Shack. We'll have a race and see for sure who has the best and fastest golf cart in all of Gravity Falls!" "Oh your on Mabel! Lucky for you I don't mind waiting at the finish line to see you loose" says Pacifica. She then then drives off laughing.
"Well that got rid of her" says Mabel. "Uh Mabel, you do realize you just challenged Pacifica to a race" says Wendy. It then snaps inside of Mabel. "Your right. What was I thinking! Pacifica is gonna mop the floor with me tomorrow!" At that moment Dipper walks out of the store. "I got the milk, oh hey Wendy" he says. The two girls look at him with a surprised expression. "Okay what just happened" he says.
The two explain everything to him. "Okay first of all, a golf cart race, seriously" says Dipper. "Sorry, I was mad at her what did you expect me to do, punch her. She would have sued me right there, I'm sure she has a lawyer trapped in the trunk" says Mabel. "Its okay. Look if we're going to win this, we gotta get this old thing ready for a race. Now I think I know the perfect person for the job" says Dipper. The three of them then drive back home.
Back at the Mystery Shack, Dipper consults the man himself for help. "So you dudes want me to help you modify the golf cart into a race cart" says Soos. "Uhh ya, something like that. Basically something that can beat Pacifica's golf cart in a race" says Mabel. "Oh I am so on this dudes, I gotta go get my how to build a race car in less then a day book" Soos says. "You know I think we might just have a chance to win this thing Dipper" Mabel says.
The three get to work. Soos works on the engine, Dipper works on the interior and Mabel makes marry with the paint. The more stickers the better. Meanwhile Wendy is tasked with plotting a good race course for them. Work goes well. That is until Stan arrives. "What the heck are you three doing to my golf cart" he says. "Were turning getting it ready for a race" says Mabel. "Make sure to add racing strips to it. Those always make race cars go faster" says Soos. Stan looks mad, but then an idea pops into his head. "So your having a race right. And where there's a race, there money" he says as he walks back to the shack. The trio look on at him and soon get back to work.
By that evening, the golf cart modifications are complete. "I gotta hand it to you Mabel, your paint job looks amazing on it" says Dipper. "Thanks. The inside looks great too" Mabel replies. "But you gotta admit, the best part is what Soos has done right" says Dipper. The twins both nod their heads. "Aww thanks dudes. That's no longer a golf cart, it's a mean and fast racing golf cart, with strips" says Soos. He was right. Soos had added a bunch of modifications to the engine to make it faster including two turbochargers, 2 extra pistons, a larger fuel tank, lightweight but very grippy tires, and even a spoiler to keep it firm on the ground at high speeds. It was everything like the golf cart was when he, Dipper and Wendy jumped over Stan's car, but now ten times better and more powerful. The three went back to get some rest. It was gonna be a big day tomorrow for sure.
