Alan Scaras (Yonkuro Inomaru) is an orphan of his parents and lives with his grandmother (it can be deduced from the fact that at home he has a small altar with photos of his father and mother in front of which he prays). He is passionate about Mini 4WD, 1:32 scale all-wheel drive model cars. With other friends (Ciccio Sprint, Davide, Ted and Stella) he forms the team of noble warriors under the guidance of manager Francesco, Stella's elder brother. Alan goes to the first official race and together with his teammates they have to clash in the first preliminary round with the "Onions" team made up of overbearing and unfair kids (they try to damage the models of others and disturb the opponents with their breath that smells of onion ), led by manager Arturo. He runs on a banked circuit with a long jump that will test the cars. After a first heat in which Davide and Alan are defeated because they did not adequately set up the course, the noble warriors recover by winning the second with Ciccio Sprint and the third with Alan himself, who modified his "Number 1" so that it has a kind of air brake.
