The letter points Al to a time machine, an unimpressive-looking zinc-tub-and-laptop contraption in the secret bunker of their old house. It also describes a mind-blowing mission: if Al can travel back to 1984 and stop a go-kart accident involving his dad as a twelve-year-old boy, then maybe he can alter the course of history--and prevent his dad's death.  As Al soon discovers, whizzing back thirty years requires not only imagination and courage, but also garage break-ins, midnight rides on his grandpa's mauve scooter, and even setting his school on fire.
