Today our Wacky Racers are wheeling their way from Budapest, Hungary to the finish line in Bucharest, Romania. The Army Surplus Special is in the lead with the Creepy Coupe in second position and Professor Pat Pending in third position. Wait a minute, there's a helicopter. Don't tell me that's Dick Dastardly

"Well, it's not your grandmother."

Now what are you up to?

"Just look below."

A giant firecracker with wings?

"That's right! I'll give those Wacky Racers the firework display that they have never seen!"

Uh-oh this will be more than catastrophic!

"Uh-oh Segre, there's a firecracker with wings heading straight for us!"

"Yikes! Quick, someone think fast!"

"I'm on it!'

Professor brings out a giant pipeline that diverts it back to the helicopter and what a firework display. Everyone stopped to watch it.

"Don't you just love fireworks?" said Vanessa

"They are pretty." said Penelope

"And amazing." said Peter

"This is just awesome." said Christopher

"Best firework display I've ever seen." Luke

"Neat huh?" said Rock Slag

"Yeah, yeah." said Gravel Slag

Not far from them Dastardly landed on the ground.

He coughed "Drat!"

Muttley snickered as he floated down gently by parachute.

According to our radar scope the Wacky Racers are bunched up and then peel off. They now pass through Szolnok and enter the border of Romania. The Army Surplus Special is still in the lead with Rufus Ruffcut in second place and the Ant Hill Mob in third place. Let's check up ahead in Oradea; it looks like Dick Dastardly has come up with another plan.

"Indeed, this large brick wall should stop them!" Dick Dastardly zooms ahead

"Hey Serge, there's a large brick wall up ahead."

"Plow right through it!"

They smashed through the brick wall and everyone managed to get across.

"Did that plowing hurt you Serge?"

"What do you think?" Serge appeared from the cannon

Meanwhile Dick Dastardly is in lead and arrive in Cluj-Napoca. But unknown to him, a pair of eyes watches him.

A small sprite dressed in green clothes and wings. He giggled

"They look like perfect easy targets to play pranks on."

"Drat! I meant to stall them but they're getting ahead. I'll have to be more dastardly."

He drove through a net which repelled him backwards into a wall.

"Wow! What a kooky yet clever booby-trap! I wished I thought of it!"

"That was made by me; Aldo the sprite!"

"A sprite eh? You could be of some help for me." he chuckled

"Sure why not, I've played some tricks for a while."

Little did Dastardly knew that the sprite was going to double cross him as he crossed his fingers behind his back

"Here they come Aldo. What plan do you have?"

"I'm going to play this tape. This tape will play music which will cause them to stop and make them dance Romanian folk dances."

"That sounds like fun. Play that tape."

He plays the tape and the music makes Dastardly and Muttley do the folk dances instead.

"Don't forget the costumes."

He dressed them in the folk dancing costumes

"Drat you! You let the others get away!"

"Cheer up and enjoy the dancing. See, the dog is enjoying it."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah." Muttley snickered

The Wacky Racers go along their way through city to city battling for the lead. The Army Surplus Special holds onto the lead with the Ant Hill Mob in second place and the charming Nurse Bridget in third place but here come the Slag Brothers making their move to pass her.

Rock smacks the umbrella down forcing Nurse Bridget to stop as they go on ahead.

"Oh dear, I can't see anything."

The Professor stops

"Don't worry Nurse, I'll help you."

He uses a gizmo that straights the umbrella

"That's better, thank you Professor."

"My pleasure Nurse Bridget."

They speed off

The racers now come to Sibiu.

"All right, I've got a good one. What appears to be straw on the road is actually a giant hole and they will all have a great fall."

"Simple yet sneaky; I like it, I like it! But there better be no slip ups!"

"Don't worry this is foolproof."

"Here they come, let's watch the fun."

But everyone got through without falling.

"What the- They all got through! Aldo, you dum-dum!"

"I was sure it would work. Why don't you try it? Maybe you'll get across."

"I will."

Dastardly got in and drove only to fall into the trap. Aldo and Muttley laughed.

And now from Rimnicu Vilcea to Pitesti drive the Wacky Racers. The Army Surplus Special is a cinch to win with the Ant Hill Mob in second place and the Arkansas Chuggabug is steaming along in third place.

"All right Aldo, this plan better go well or you're through!"

"Don't worry this will work."

What has Aldo come up with this time?

"When the Wacky Racers cross this line altogether, it will activate his trap and cover all the Racers in cold ice cream with whipped cream, sprinkles and a cherry to top it all! Oh boy, they'll get a sweet surprise!" He laughed

"Here they come!"

"Oh boy I can't wait!"

But nothing happened and everyone passed safely

"Aldo! You dum-dum sprite! Why I ought to-"

Everything fell on Dastardly

"Shall we?"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah."

They started eating and laughing.

Now it's the finish line and here they come. The winner is the Army Surplus Special, the Ant Hill Mob finish second and the Arkansas Chuggabug comes in third. It was a great race!

Dastardly crosses the finish line last as usual.

"When I get my hands on that sprite, he's going to get it!"

That's when Dastardly saw Vanessa, Crystal and Aldo laughing

"Good work Aldo."

"Thanks Miss Vanessa, anything for you."

"You know each other?'

"We're good friends. When I need someone to pretend to be a villain's friend and prank them, I call Aldo."

"You mean to tell me you were working together just to make me lose?"

"After that giant firecracker attempt, I could not take any chances."

"You're despicable!"

"Look who's talking Mr. Despicable Sore Loser." said Crystal "Don't you know, all is fair in love and racing."

They all laughed while Dastardly grew furious "Drat, drat and double drat!"
