Contains 4 stories
He Who Laughs Last
6 pp · car

Clint and Alex respond to what seems like a desperate cry for help, only to discover it's another prank by Waldo Pun, the town's relentless practical joker—but when they spot a crashed car with bullet holes days later, Alex insists on investigating while Clint grows suspicious. As the Road Knights dig deeper into the mystery, Waldo's reputation for elaborate gags puts them at odds over what's real and what's just another setup, leading to a tense showdown where someone's going to learn that the final laugh isn't always the easiest to pull off.

Targa Florio
6 pp · car

Ken King pushes his Cobra through the grueling Targa Florio—a mountainous Italian circuit of ten brutally long laps studded with over 700 curves—only to find himself locked in a fierce duel with Baron Wolfgang von Brock, a rival driver whose Porsche dominates the technical corners. With his pit crew and co-driver John Weems working in tandem, Ken must find a way to outmaneuver a competitor who seems nearly unbeatable on this treacherous course, all while managing the physical and mechanical toll of hours of high-speed driving.

Banzai Run
6 pp · car

Clint's dragster is destroyed in a catastrophic tire blowout during qualifying, but he gets a second chance when Salty Surfer offers him the keys to his old Chevy—a ride that's slower than nearly everything on the track. As Clint pilots the underdog through the eliminations, luck and sheer nerve keep him in the hunt for the $1,000 Top Eliminator prize and a shot at the finals.

Sebring '65
5 pp · car

The legendary 12-hour endurance race at Sebring in 1965 becomes a test of machine and nerve as Ferrari's absence fuels speculation—can the Ford GT and the unconventional Chaparral, with its massive Corvette engine, dethrone the red Italian marque? When a violent cloudburst floods the track mid-race, drivers creep along at a fraction of their top speed, and one car crashes into a bridge abutment, the Chaparral team must hold its ground and fight back through the darkness to claim victory.
