Plot
Thunder, Fluff, Clawface, and Walter are walking through Steel Town one evening, and Fluff detects a Sacred Orb on his radar. Glass shatters and from Steel Town Bank fall four dinosaur beastmen, who have the Sacred Orb. Thunder, Walter and Clawface manage to knock one of the dinosaurs out of the machine he was driving, but he was later saved by another. Thunder steals the machine the clumsy dinosaur left behind and pursues the leader of this group of dinosaurs. However, he gives Thunder a taste of his own medicine, and the group, known as Geo Thieves, escape.

The next day, Thunder finds that Whisker and Dr. Gerbil had set up a racing tournament, with the prize being the very Sacred Orb that was stolen, and the top four entries being the thieves! Thunder and his friends promptly pay the entry fee of one Sacred Orb and take up the challenge. But what was Whisker's true motive, and what of the four thieving dinosaurs?
