One is fast, shiny, and ready to go; the other is a comfortable old jalopy, a little worse for wear but as reliable as can be. On a magic moonlit night, the doors of the garage swing open and they head out for a spin, each determined to prove that he is the best car on the road. Over hill and dale and roundabout they go, encounteringand narrowly missingtrains, trucks, wildlife, and even, in the form of a policeman on a motorcycle, the long arm of the law. Before the two cars nocturnal caper is over, each will have discovered the being the best is not so simple as you might suppose.
