Red Flag
(2001)(The seventh book in the Nascar Racers series)
A novel by Mel Gilden and Michael Teitelbaum
Raising the stakes...
It's a free-for-all, no-holds-barred, unofficial race it's a million dollars of prize money hanging in the balance! In other words -- anything goes!
When Charger, Spitfire, Flyer, and Stunts square off against Team Rexcor on Rexcor's home track, it's dirty-tricks time to the max. But what Team Fastex doesn't know is that Rexcor has hidden a device in each of their cars allowing Garner Rexton to control the Fastex cars as they zoom down the track. One by one, the Team Fastex cars spin wildly out of control, manipulated by Junker, Specter, Zorina -- and Garner Rexton himself!
The only person who discovers this devious deception is Charger's younger brother, ten-year-old Miles McCutchen. But no one will listen to him! It's up to Miles to take matters into his own hands.
Is it possible for a young boy like Miles to outwit the ruthless Garner Rexton? Maybe it's his destiny save the race for Charger and the others . . . or maybe this is the final race for Team Fastex!
