The kids decide to have a Mini-Con race in the middle of nowhere... and yet are somehow surprised when the plot happens to them.
Synopsis
Carlos runs into Rad after school and asks him if he wants to have a race to the Autobot ship. When Rad agrees, Alexis interrupts and asks if she's invited as well. Right when they're having the greatest amount of fun, however, Megatron stages an ambush. The Autobots intervene, keeping the kids from getting killed. The three kids declare that they're all winners as long as they have friends like the Autobots around them.
Featured Characters

Notes
Errors
- The kids are all looking surprisingly off-model here, made even more glaring by the fact that the other Bendon book, Cave Catastrophe, had passable illustrations.
- Pages 14 and 15 are supposed to be a single picture, but it's cut in half at the page division by an odd blue and white line; this appears to be part of the artwork from pages 10 and 11, when the kids are racing along on the water.
Continuity Notes
- Although the kids pick up a Mini-Con crystal in Cave Catastrophe, it's not mentioned here. It could be that this book takes place first chronologically, or it could be that a different author / illustrator pair worked on this book and the two pairs didn't compare notes. The off-model artwork suggests that the latter might be the actual situation.
- Just how did the Autobots know where the kids were in the first place, let alone that they were in trouble? This point is never explained.
Trivia
- Although there is, indeed, a page 24 to the book, it merely contains the words "The End." The final page of actual story is page 23.
