Summary
Ricardo Racecar loses his energy during a race. Then, Doc and the gang need to recharge it.
Recap
Doc and Donny are playing with racecars in their backyard. Donny brings out Ricardo, his favorite toy racecar. As he's playing with the toy, Ricardo begins to move slower and slower until he doesn't move at all. He ultimately ends up losing his very first race. Donny is really upset and since he was up very late racing his cars his dad has him go take a nap so he'll be recharged when Luca comes over. While Donny takes his nap, Doc gives Ricardo a checkup.
Once Doc checks the toy out, she realizes that Ricardo is run down because Donny was playing with him all night. All Ricardo needs is his batteries recharged. As soon as he's finished recharging Ricardo is once again going fast and at top speed.

- Donny: Ladies and gentlemen, you are about to watch the world famous Ricardo Racecar win another race.

- Stuffy: You're the greatest racecar there is.
- Ricardo: Hee hee. This is true, I am. So why am I being carried?
