Today our Wacky Racers cross through hot shifting sands to the finish line in Baghdad, Iraq. And what a Wacky Race this is as each driver is determined to win it. The only obstacle in their way is the villainous Dick Dastardly.

"I'll win yet."

And his wheezy snickering buddy Muttley

Muttley laughed while smiling a mischievous smile.

At this point Vanessa is leading using Magic Carpet Power as the racers climb the sand dunes. Dick Dastardly who is in last place is about to make a move. He takes to the air by propeller power and passes the pack.

"Out of my way Vanessa or your flying carpet's going to be cut to pieces!"

"Oh yeah?" Crystal uses a prop stopper

"Yikes!" They spin uncontrollably and out of sight.

As the Wacky Racers dart across the desert a pair of eyes tracks their trail of dust.

A man in blue jacket, shirt, green pants and brown shoes watched them

"I see some strangers crossing through my territory. Well if they think they can steal my treasure, they got another thing coming! First I must alert Hatim to guard the treasure cave and then I Marmar shall stop them!" He laughed as he dashed off

The racers are now bunched up then they peel off, they're bunched up again then they peel off again. The Slag Brothers are clubbing their way to first, number 7 second, number 11 third and unable to pass is number 3. But driver Pat Pending is always inventing. He's now converted to a giant drill and passes the leaders and takes over first place.

Uh-oh, it's a fierce dust storm and it's every car for themselves.

It was Marmar's doing as he used a special fan

"That should take of them." he went off

Meanwhile Dastardly and Muttley dashed through the sand trying to find the highway and stopped by a nearby rock

"Drat! Thanks to that meddling female's meddling cat we're lost."

Suddenly the cave started to open

"How you do that?"

"I don't know how I did it. But let's go inside anyway."

As they entered the dark cave a few gold lights sparkle in the dark. It was gold and mountains of it! Coins, rings, crowns, sticks you name it! Dastardly's jaw dropped and he immediately jumped into the treasure

"Yes I'm rich! I'm rich! I'm a millionaire!"

"Oh boy." Muttley put his hand to his face as his master was completely driven wacky by treasure

"Well don't just stand there Muttley! Get the carts, we got lots of gold to haul in!"

On the other side of the cave a muscular man with red fez, red jacket and brown pants and shoes was guarding the cave

"Oh hi Marmar, did you take care of them?"

"Yup, they won't find their way here. That dust storm will keep them busy."

"I've got lunch ready."

"Good let's eat."

As they were eating Vanessa pulled up in the entrance to the other side of the cave

"Oh great not only am I covered in sand, we're lost."

"Maybe someone's inside in that cave."

"You go on ahead Crystal. I'll come along as soon as I'm done with a quick shower."

Vanessa switched the curtains up and hummed a tune as the shower came on. Crystal wandered into the cave and noticed Muttley passing by with a crate filled with gold

"Hi Muttley."

"Crystal?"

"You got lost too?"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah."

"I take it this must be a treasure cave. Most likely thieves would store their treasure in these caves."

Then Dastardly came up with a cart full of gold

"Crystal, what are you doing here?"

"I wandered in here out of my curious nature what else? Besides you shouldn't take more than what you need."

"I'm taking what I need, all of it!" he chuckled as he went out

Vanessa came in as she brushed her hair "I know one thing; he's going to be in trouble."

On the other side of the treasure cave

"Hey Marmar I hear something."

"Yeah me too. Let's go take a look."

Dastardly was transporting his last cart when

"Hold it stranger! Give us back our treasure!"

"It's mine. If you want it back you'll have to make me!"

Hatim cut his hat in half. That's when Dastardly smiled nervously and ran for it

"Help, Muttley, Vanessa save me!"

He held a piece of gold in his hands which he was going to give to Vanessa as she brushed her hair

"You can have it if you save me! Please?"

Vanessa took one look at it and threw away as she continued to brush her hair. Dastardly frowned at her

"You proud peacock."

He ran then ran for it as the two angry thieves approached him

"Excuse us pretty lady but did you see man with mustache?"

"Yes, he went that-a-way." She pointed to a basket with a long rope that reached the sky

They climbed up and once of sight Crystal cut the rope with her claws.

"Are they gone?"

"Yeah I got of rid of them. Now I'm getting back in the Wacky Race. Are you coming D.D."

"What for? There's no chance of either of us winning anyway. Besides I'm not leaving this treasure, for when I'm not being sneaky I can be greedy."

"Very well, but you'll be sorry." They drove off

Despite the fierce dust storm the racers continue their way to the finish line. It's Number 8 first, Number 1 second and Number 6 third. The Creepy Coupe finding themselves last switch to Dragon Wheel Power. And there they go! They past everyone and take the lead! And at the finish line number 2 the Creepy Coupe finishes first with the Arkansas Chuggabug second and the Slag Brothers third.

The Mean Machine comes in last with Muttley holding a jar in his hands

"What's with the jar Muttley?"

Inside the jar was Dastardly, somehow he shrunk to tiny side while hanging onto a chunk of gold

"What happened?"

He showed them a gold stick which turned out to be a wand

"A wand?"

Muttley spoke unintelligibly

"I see, you accidentally made the treasure disappear and you shrunk Dastardly in order to save yourself."

"So only one piece of gold is left. In a way it punished him for being greedy. It just goes to show some lessons will be learned the hard way."

Dastardly continued hugging his piece of gold "I'm rich, I'm a happy rich man."

Crystal and Muttley laughed
