Plot
A villain, competing with his rival's race car, kidnaps the rival before the race. Mabel decides to take the wheel in his place.
Sinekatalog’s take
A villain kidnaps a rival racer, so Mabel takes the wheel herself in Sennett's frantic silent comedy. Fast, rowdy and full of chase energy, it showcases a spirited heroine, which is the reason to watch it.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
