Hot Rod Hot Dog

(3) K-3 Underdog Rod (a dog) longs to defeat Shelly Turtle, the perennial winner of the Pickleberry Grand Prix. Unfortunately, his oddball hot rod designs just don't work. He perseveres, however, and with his modified lawnmower he heroically rescues Shelly from a near-crash and wins the trophy for them both. The cartoon illustrations, featuring quirky animal-driven hot rods, are a good match for the jokey wordplay.
