Premise

TruckWorld.com put out an article in May of 2003, giving a premise to the film.

"TRUCKWORLD ® has learned of the preliminary plot for the film, which is based around a family of four that builds a Monster Truck. The truck they build is the Monster Mutt. When the Mutt is ready to roll, the son skillfully drives the truck via remote control. The daughter loves the truck and finds herself in the drivers seat just along for the ride. Competing on tracks throughout the country the Monster Mutt becomes very popular and is winning many races. Making it to the World Finals unforeseen remote control problems occur and the son can't use the controls to drive the truck. The daughter has to take charge of the situation and actually drive the truck at the event, ultimately winning the race."
