Summary: A hot rodder named Ding-Dong Daddy steals a Titanium alloy briefcase from Robin. He offers to return it to him, but first he must beat him in a street race. Robin races against Ding-Dong on his motorcycle, while Cyborg and Beast Boy take the T-Car. Starfire and Raven are left behind to find their own means of transportation.

Meanwhile, several other villains learn of the race and join in to compete for the chance to win the grand prize. Red X shows up and has a final showdown with Robin.
