Here's another new chapter for this story! Anyway, enjoy!


"And here we go with the second lap!" Mr. Simmons announced as four go-karts started to drive along the track. "In the lead so far, Gerald in the Cool Ride, followed closely by Harold in Helga's Angels!"

"Eugene in the Mauve Avenger isn't too far behind, but it looks like Curly's about to overturn him a bit. And..." Lila paused as she examined the two cars in motion.

Curly gave a smirk as he laughed, bumping the Mauve Avenger as Eugene yelped.

"Hey, take it easy, Curly!" Eugene said, gasping.

"No chance, Eugene! I'm still a little ticked at you for the pencil incident, so I'm going to take advantage of this opportunity!" Curly laughed.

"What? You're STILL on about the pencil incident from a couple YEARS ago? Come on! Just how many grudges do you hold against people?" Eugene asked.

"Trust me, I hold pretty good grudges. I still hate Gerald for not letting me tell my version of the Ghost Bride, I'm still ticked at Sid for being Ball Monitor, I'm still sore at anybody that goes near my Rhonda..."

"You mean, like when she went out with Harold at the Cheese Festival instead of you? I think Harold and Gerald are out in front. You can bump THEIR cars! At least the pencil thing was harmless!" Eugene said.

Curly paused. "Oh, I suppose you have a fairly decent point. Very well, I'll go bug them."

Curly then passed by Eugene as Eugene sighed in relief.

Over near the pit stop areas, Arnold was humming as he seemed to be fiddling with the controls. Stinky turned to Arnold in confusion as he asked, "What's with that there doo-dad, Arnold?"

"Well, I knew that if I let Eugene drive the Mauve Avenger himself, we'd be out of the race for sure. That's why I'm "helping" him... by disabling the car for a bit so it runs on remote control power!" Arnold smirked.

Stinky blinked as he said, "Is that against the rules?"

"I checked, and there's nothing in the rules that says you can't use a remote control car. Besides, only ONE person has to drive... it didn't say anything about someone operating through a remote!" Arnold smirked.

Stinky paused. "That thar is clever..."

"And rounding the corner is Harold and Gerald in their rides... and oh boy, looks like Curly in Stylish Power is coming in, literally ramming Harold's car and bumping it towards Gerald's!" Lila pointed out as Curly indeed do just that.

"WHAT THE HECK, MAN?" Gerald said, turning towards Curly as he rounded the corner.

"I'd be more concerned for Helga and Phoebe right now. They seem to be putting tacks on the road, hoping to slow down the other racers." Mr. Simmons said, pointing out to another side of the track.

"Okay, do they think everyone here isn't seeing what they're doing, because we are clearly seeing it." Lila sighed. "They're doing it right in plain view!"

"From the looks of things, I don't think the kids are even looking." Mr. Simmons said as Helga and Phoebe were finishing putting the tacks down.

"And there we go! This could be good for us!" Helga smiled.

"Yeah... no. This is dumb, even for you, Helga." Phoebe sighed as Helga looked up. "I mean, yes, it might slow down the other racers... but it's going to slow down OUR kart too!"

Helga opened her mouth.

"And I want you to actually think before commentating on how 'brilliant' your idea is." Phoebe glared.

Helga stopped as she paused to think about it... then yelped. "Sheesh, I hate it when you're right, Pheebs. Come on, let's get the tacks out of the road."

"Seems like Phoebe and Helga are taking the tacks off the road. Seems like they're reconsidering the plan." Lila pointed out.

"Good timing too, looks like Cool Ride, Helga's Angel, Stylish Ride and the Mauve Avenger are rounding the corner." Mr. Simmons said as all four cars, now evenly matched just as Phoebe and Helga took out the last tack.

"Gosh Helga, that's so nice of you to take all those tacks off!" Eugene smiled.

"Uh, Eugene, Helga the Horrible probably put those there in the first place!" Gerald called.

"SEE YA, SUCKERS!" Curly said, driving off in his kart as Eugene "drove" by them.

"Oh, D'OH!" Gerald and Harold groaned as they started going off.

Over near the pit stop areas, Rhonda and Nadine frowned as Helga and Phoebe were coming back. "You done cheating?"

Helga groaned. "Pretty much, yes..."

"And ending the second lap, coming in first, is Curly in Stylish Ride, followed closely by Eugene in the Mauve Avenger!" Lila said as all the cars pulled into the Pit Stop. "As the final two teams come in to switch up their drivers for any last thing they need... all they need to do is complete the final lap, and they win!"

Over near Stylish Ride, as Curly pulled up, Rhonda smiled as she hopped in the kart. "All right, I am ready to drive in style, my friends!"

"You do that, Rhonda." Nadine said as she laid back. "Let's just hope everything goes well in this final lap!"

Over near the Mauve Avenger, Eugene got out of the kart as Arnold smiled, "You done pretty good Eugene!"

"Golly, thanks Arnold!" Eugene smiled. "I can't believe I didn't crash the car!"

"I guess that's probably because Arnold-" Stinky started before Arnold covered Stinky's mouth.

Arnold whispered into Stinky's ear. "Don't ell-tay him my an-play!"

"Sorry." Stinky whispered.

"What was that?" Eugene asked as Arnold switched off the remote control and got in the cart.

"Oh, well, I guess it's my turn... and Phoebe is on this, so... she's a speed demon that's going to be tough to beat. I'm going to give it my all there!" Arnold said.

Eugene nodded. "Oh, okay. Good luck, Arnold!"

Over near Cool Ride, Gerald stopped the car as Sid jumped in. "Okay, it's my turn now! Let's just hope I can make you all proud!"

"Don't you worry about a thing, Sid!" Tucker smiled. "With our luck, we could be able to win this yet!"

Sid smiled. "Thanks, Tucker."

"Remember Sid, we are putting in a lot of confidence for you, so... don't screw up!" Gerald said.

"Don't worry!" Sid smiled.

Over near Helga's Angels, Harold got out of the car as Phoebe took a deep breath. "Okay... time to release my inner speed demon!"

"You do that, Phoebe!" Helga said as Phoebe jumped in the car. "With you in the wheel, we have this in the bag!"

"Yeah! If you can win the first Grand Prix for us, you can do it again!" Harold smiled.

Phoebe nodded as she looked at the light that marked green as she started to zoom off quickly.

"Whoa, and there goes Helga's Angels! The other three drivers have just noticed and are starting to go off!" Lila said as Arnold, Rhonda and Sid started to follow Phoebe.

"This is it, this could be anyone's race at this point!" Mr. Simmons said in concern as everyone was watching the final lap currently in progress.

Now they were wondering, who could possibly win this event at this point in time?
