[car engines revving]

[announcer] Look at that car go!
This is the race of the century!


Newcomer Coop is
about to make history


in his favorite car,
the GT-Scorcher!


You want to race?

Ha, how do you like
these Hot Wheels?

On your left!

It's not the same
without the flame!

[turbo engine charging]

Yeah! Here I come!

On your right!

Above you!

Yeah!

-[wheels screeching]
-Whoa!

Yay!

-I did it! I'm Camp Champ!
-[crowd cheering]

[crowd chanting] Coop! Coop! Coop!

[Coop's Dad] Coop?
You're daydreaming again!

Sorry, Dad! I was thinking about
how awesome camp will be at...

Whoa!

-[dramatic electric guitar]
-The Ultimate Garage!

Wow! This place is so cool!

Oh! Those must be
the other campers!

I hope I have what it takes to
be a real-life Hot Wheels racer.

If anyone does, it's you, Coop.

If you ever have doubts,
just remember what you tell me.

"A Hot Wheels racer always says..."

[both] "Challenge accepted!"

-[heavy engine slowly revving]
-Oh, that's my cue! Gotta go, Dad!

[engine revving]

[exciting music playing]

[tires screeching]

So cool!

[tires squealing]

[door hissing]

Hey there, campers, I'm...

Dash Wheeler!
Ten time Hot Wheel's 500 champion!

Leader of the Ultimate Garage!

And a big fan of blueberry waffles!

[laughs] Well, I guess
we can skip my intro!

Welcome, Spark.

Mac,

Brights,

Axle, Sidecar,
and Coop!

You six were chosen because
you have what it takes

to be the next generation
of Hot Wheels racers!

We're gonna race
Hot Wheels cars,

build amazing tracks
with the Track Builder,

and learn what it means
to be a Hot Wheels Racer!

The one who gets the most points,
gets to be Camp Champ!

[campers cheering excitedly]

Buckle up.
Racing school starts now!

Behold, the wonders of
the Ultimate Garage!

Take it away, Squeakers!

Squeakers? Where is Squeakers?

[Squeakers beeps, tiny engine revs]

Wow!

[remote pulses]

[music swells]

-[Campers] Wow!
-Whoa!

[Coop] I can't believe my eyes!

[Brights] Experimotors?

Oh, Street Beasts!

The full set of AcceleRacers!

It's every car in Hot Wheels City!

It sure is! It's not called
the "Ultimate Garage" for nothing!

Every car has a special power!

You'll use these racing gloves

to choose one
and complete the challenge!

Now, go check out the cars,

-we will begin in one hour!
-[cheering]

And in the meantime, I'm gonna
get me a blueberry waffle.

[gasping]

The Twin Mill,
it's Dash's favorite car!

It's won more races
than I can count!

I want to find one
that gets me big air!

I like the Taco Car!

So many cars! Awesome!

It doesn't matter
which car any of you pick,

I'm gonna be Camp Champ!

Yeah, he's gonna be Camp Champ!

Don't worry about those two,

Dash picked us because
we all have a chance to win!

How about you, Coop?
Is there a car you're pumped for?

The GT-Scorcher!

I've been dreaming
of this car forever!

No way, if anyone's driving

the GT-Scorcher first,
it's gonna be me!

I don't think so, Axle!

[grunting]

Look out! Dash's Twin Mill!

[Squeaker buzzes]

[Coop] Oh, no! The tire!

[screeching breaks]

[distant expl*si*n]

So you launched a tire
into Hot Wheels City,

I'm sure that happens all the time!

-[news alert]
-Breaking news! A tire has been

launched into Hot Wheels City
for the very first time!


Don't worry dude,
you probably won't get in trouble!

Whoever caused this crazy chaos
can bet they are in big trouble!

-Oh, no, it's coming straight for me!
-[static buzzes]

Well, it was nice knowing ya! Not!

[laughing] No way Dash lets you
stay at camp after this!

I can't get kicked
out on the first day!

I need to stop that tire
before it wrecks the whole city!

-Well, you're not going to do it alone!
-Agreed!

I'll stay here
and work the track builder!

And when you fail,
Sidecar and I

-can laugh in your face!
-[Squeaker revs]

We've gotta put the pedal to the metal!

Hot Wheels Racers,
let's get that tire!

[intense music playing]

I want a racer fast enough to catch
that run-away wheel!

I choose the GT-Scorcher!

I need a car that can
bounce that tire back home!

I choose the Rodger Dodger!

And speaking of bouncing,
this shock will get me big air!

I choose the Baja Jump Truck!

[racers] Woo-hoo!

Whoa, that was awesome!

[sighs]
Now, where are those waffles?

What's an Ultimate Garage Hero got to do
to get some waffles around here?

[suspenseful music playing]

I see the tire.

Coop, let's catch it
before it gets away!

You don't have to tell me twice.

[engine charges up]

[tires screeching]

Ah! This was way easier
in my daydream!

Whoa! Now I know
how my underwear feels

in the washing machine!

Whoo-hoo!

[dramatic music playing]

[Spark] Are you okay?

Yep, just a little spun out.

[gasps] The tire's
gonna destroy the city!

[civilian yelling]

It feels like we're never
going to catch that tire!

We have to try!
A Hot Wheels Racer

always says, "Challenge accepted!"

We won't be Hot Wheel's Racers

if the tire won't
stay on the track!

The Track Builder, that's it!

-Brights, come in, this is Spark.
-Brights and Squeakers here.

We need you to change the configuration
of the tracks to keep the tire on it.


Roger that, Rodger Dodger!

-Squeakers and I are on the job.
-[beeping]

Track Builder go!

[Track Builder charging up]

[gasps] There it is, Squeakers!

Let's catch it before
it does any more damage!

-We did it, Squeakers!
-[Squeakers dings]

One runaway tire,
heading your way.

Racers, let's roll!
Keep your eyes open,

Brights should be getting
that tire to us any second.

There it is!
Okay team, now's our chance!

[engines revving]

Okay, let's catch that tire
Hot Wheels style!

[Mac] Oh, yeah!

Time for some big air!

[bouncing]

[Mac] On your left, Spark!

Coop, one runaway wheel coming your way!

[Coop] Got it now!

Brights, part of the track is missing!

Axle, you're ruining the track!
Coop's gonna fall off!

Looks like your time at camp
has officially stalled out, Coop.

[Coop] Whoa, whoa...

Oh, no!

-He's not gonna make it!
-I'm not gonna make it!

There must be
something we can do?


We tried everything!

We tried racing.

The Track Builder.

The power of friendship?

Wait. Power!
What did Dash say about power?

Every car has a special power!

Every car has a special power!
That's it!

Okay GT-Scorcher,
let's see what you've got!

[engine revving]

Super speed burst, activate!

Go Hot Wheels!

[exciting music playing]

Yeah!

[bouncing]

-[both] Yeah!
-[cheering]

-[Axle] What?
-[Squeaker revs]

[tires screeching]

I did it!

Hold up, explain this
to me again, one more time?

Dash, please don't blame Mac and Spark,
I knocked the Twin Mill's tire off,

if anyone deserves to be
kicked out of camp, it's me.

Wait, who said anything about
kicking anyone out?

What?

The point is you made
a mistake and you fixed it.

You should've seen the stuff I got into
when I was a camper.

[dinging]

[sighs] There... There were skid marks.
[chuckles]

Smart move choosing the GT-Scorcher.

You picked a car fast enough to catch
that wacky wheel!

The key was to never give up!

Plus, he had help from
his super awesome,

totally cool new friends!

[laughing]

I'm glad to hear it, because if you
thought today was wild, buckle up,

we are just getting started!
Who's ready to race?

[all] Whoo-hoo!

[announcer] It's fast, it's fiery,
and it's coming up next!


[racers] I choose,
the Dragon Blaster!


[tires squeal]

♪ Hot Wheels, lets race! ♪

[Dash] Here at
the Ultimate Garage Racing Camp,


you're competing to be the Camp Champ.

-Here we go!
-[excited cheering]

Today, you'll be racing
in the first of many

epic mega races, and the winner
will get a Flame Badge!

Get enough Flame Badges
throughout the season

and you'll be crowned
Camp Champ!

-Yeah!
-Let's go!

Let's check out
the Track Builder to see the course.

In stage one,
you'll blaze past

the fabulously fun Fire House!

[all gasp]

Then zoom through
the Impound Lot's

totally tricky tracks
for stage two!

[both] Whoa!

Finally, you'll race around the city
and cross the finish line!

But drive fast, the last camper
to complete each stage will be out!

Hit it, Squeakers!
Track Builder, go!

[exciting music playing]

[Campers] Whoa!

None of you slow-pokes
stand a chance!

Today, or ever!
My dad's been teaching me to race

since you were
still in baby seats.

Oh, snap, you all
need some sunscreen

because you just got b*rned!

Our parents might not
be professional racers

like your dad Axle,
but anyone can be a champion!

Loving the passion,
but while it's fun to win,

a Hot Wheels race is about
bringing people together.

Now rev those engines, it's go time.

[all] Challenge accepted

-[high energy music playing]
-[racing glove activates]

I want a car with wings,
'cause I'll be flying down the tracks!

I choose the Dragon Blaster!

I choose the Skull Crusher!

I choose the Mountain Mauler!

I choose the Mad Manga!

I choose the Rip Rod!

I choose the Street Wiener!

[engines roaring]

Hey, hey, hey, Hot Wheels' fans,

Speedy Getaway here, giving you the
play-by-play on the first Camp Champ race!

Who will start off
the season with a win?

I can't see into the future,
but I can see our racers coming!

[engines revving]

Turn on your AC folks
'cause this race is about to heat up!

Stage one at the Fire House
is straight ahead!

[energetic music playing]

Oh, are those mega-sized
water balloons?

It's a Hot Wheels race, Sidecar,
we've got to be prepared for anything!

Doesn't matter what the obstacles are,
nothing slows me down.

Ha!

[water balloons explode]

[track marker jingles]

Oh, yeah!

Come on, Coop, you can do this!

-[revving]
-[Speedy Getaway] One spot left!

Will Coop and the Dragon Blaster
fire things up,


or will Brights roar into stage two
with the Rip Rod?


[yelling]

Coop makes it!
Which means Brights


is erased from the race!
Metaphorically, of course.


She's just heading back
to the Ultimate Garage.


Whoo! So close!
Good race, Brights!

I'll get them next time!

Nice driving, racers,
you made it to stage two.


But be careful, the Impound Lot
is a very tough track.


Time to rattle some cages.

[metal bars crunching]

I know I'm driving a giant hot dog,
but stop trying to chomp me!

[track marker jingles]

First again! I'll teach you all
how to drive like a real champ

when we're back
at the Ultimate Garage.

You didn't win yet,
I'm still here!

I'm about to bounce you from this race!

We'll see about that.

[engines roaring]

Oops. Oh, snap.

[cage slamming]

-Sorry, Sidecar.
-[race gate jingles]

[Speedy Getaway]
And Coop is through!

Now it's time to tow
Sidecar off the tracks,


'cause he is outta here!

I thought I was a goner back there!

You saw my moves right?

I saw you spin out Sidecar.

[Coop] That was an accident!

But this is a race, Spark,
I'm trying to win!

You kids are tearing up the track.

But I hope you like surprises,
'cause this last stage has a big one!


Is it a dessert bar?

This Street Wiener
is making me hungry!

Close!
It's a giant robotic cobra!


How is that close?

I named the cobra Cupcake!

It might be named Cupcake,
but this cobra is not sweet!

Let's see which racer
can tame the beast

and cross the finish
line to hiss-tory!

[intense music playing]

[engine roaring]

[Speedy Getaway] And Coop moves
into second place!


[laughing] Seems like
you're running out of gas!

And just so we're clear,
I mean you, not your car.

I know what you meant.

And I've got plenty
left in the t*nk, watch!

[engine roaring]

[Speedy Getaway] Whoa!
Coop drops a cool comeback


and pulls even with Axle,
this kid can do it all, folks!


[racers grunting]

It was a good race Axle,

but now I'm gonna prove that
anyone can be a champion,

including me!

-[tires squealing]
-[grunting]

[Axle] Whoa, whoa, whoa!

[gasping]

[Mac and Spark gasp]

[all exclaiming]

[yelling]

[both gasping]

[Mac and spectators scream]

[engines roaring]

If that breaks,
those racers will be pancakes!

My friends are in danger!
I have to help!

[tires squealing]

Hey, Coop, in case you forgot
the finish line is this way!

Sometimes, there are more
important things than winning.

Fire wings, activate!
Go Hot Wheels!

[wheels charging up and igniting]

[wings flap and hum]

According to my calculations,
this will end very, very, very badly.

If we make it out okay, I promise

I'll start brushing my teeth... sometimes.

[Speedy Getaway]
Wow! That was amazing!

But while Coop impressed,
it looks like Axle will win the race!


Huh?

[crowd chanting] Axle!

Spark, Mac, I'm really sorry.

I put winning ahead of
being a good teammate.

And put you and Mac at risk.

Oh, you don't have
to apologize, Coop.


Seriously, dude,
you gave up the win to save us!


And is it just me
or is anyone else craving pancakes?


Come on, let's finish this together!

[engines roaring]

Way to go, Axle! You won the first
Camp Champ Grand Prix race

and earned yourself
three Flame Badges!

You'll all have the chance to earn
more Flame Badges over the next ten weeks.

Whoever ends camp with the most badges
will be the Camp Champ!

[all] Cool!

Yeah, Camp Champ, here I come!

Victory dance time!
I'm gonna be Camp Champ!

I'm gonna be Camp Champ!

[honking and revving]

Oh, that's right, Squeakers!

I said a Hot Wheels race was
about more than just winning,

and, Coop, you showed that by sacrificing
your victory to save your friends!

That's why you also
earned a Flame Badge!

-[Axle] He got a badge?
-[Coop] I got a badge?

-Way to go!
-Congratulations, Coop!

Maybe you should
hold off on that

victory dance, Axle,
camp's just getting started.

Yeah!

[grunting]

Oh! Ow...

[announcer] Coming up next,

this speedy hot-rod
will rattle your bones!


[campers] I choose The Bone Shaker!
