After helping her fix a bust tire, he follows the Girl to the racing circuit where he becomes a mechanic before deciding to disguise himself as one of the top drivers. Suddenly it's Grand Prix time and the race is on. The prize is not only the cup - the Optimist also hopes to win the girl from his rival, a bad-tempered Cabbie (Robert Davi).
