The boys find themselves $1000 in debt when their carwash business ruins the paint jobs of their customers' cars. Benedict Bogus convinces them to enter the Mexicar 1000 Mile car race to win enough money to cover their debts. They get lost, and end up driving in the desert and meet an old prospector looking for buried treasure. The prospector offers them half of the treasure for their help, and the boys uncover a counterfeiting operation. Larry is kidnapped by the counterfeiters (posing as car race contestants), so the boys rejoin the race in their super-charged jeep.
