Synopsis
Vernon Keith, racing driver for Aladdin Motors, has finished third in a race and contends that the car's design is faulty. George Marshall, chief engineer of the company and Vernon's rival for the affections of Ethel Hume, daughter of the company's president, defends his model and blames Keith's cowardice for the loss of first place. Keith redesigns the engine on his own and offers to sell it to Aladdin Motors. When Mr. Hume refuses to purchase it, Keith quits his job to find a backer for the design. Ethel Hume, aware of Keith's need for a backer, secretly arranges to finance the project. Keith enters a new race, wins it, and at the finish discovers that Ethel has backed him. The final scene finds them in each other's arms.
