Summary: At the meeting of the League of Countries, the representative from Kapecapek announces his government's decision to close its borders to the outside world.

An official proposes that if Kapecapek's racecar driver, named Kabala, beats Speed Racer, then its borders can remain closed. At the racetrack, Speed receives an invitation to the Fire Festival Race. Speed finds this peculiar because Kapecapek doesn't have a racetrack and Kabala has been missing for a long time. Nevertheless, Speed and company arrive in Kapecapek.

Kabala shows up and the race begins.… Expand
