Rick Roberts is hired to race his Ford in a 200-mile special event on Saturday, and he and his crew prepare a modified 427 Cube Ford for the qualifying heats. During the race, Rick competes against a mysterious hooded driver in a red Maserati who deliberately forces Rick off the track at a fork, causing him to crash into an about-face; the hooded driver is revealed to be or suspected of being the evil Baron von Trawitz. The story concludes with Rick's red car pursued by the Maserati toward a closed drawbridge spanning a wide river, resulting in a dramatic crash as the bridge rises.

Wild Wheeler
9 pp · Car

Danny Lenko is a reckless young driver who gets caught speeding and ends up on probation—until his older brother Ray, a reformed hotrodder himself, offers him a job at the racing pits to keep him out of trouble. When a confrontation with a rival driver costs Ray his factory team job, the brothers decide to build their own stock car and enter it in a high-stakes 200-mile race. Now Danny has a chance to prove he's more than just a wild wheeler, but with everything on the line, one mistake could cost them everything.

Wreck to Riches
7 pp · Car

Johnny Carr has poured every last cent into souping up his '61 Falcon with a screaming 427 engine, and when he soundly beats Marsh Eaton's Hemi-Dodge on the street, Marsh sees potential and asks Johnny to drive his car in some track races—and teach him a thing or two about real racing. As Johnny helps Marsh master the art of high-speed driving and competitive racing, the two form an unlikely partnership that could turn Marsh's gorgeous ride into a track champion.
