Brad Ellis inherited his uncle's prized 1974 Camaro plus his street racing skills. Brad's best friend, Tyler, speaks fluent geek and desperately wants to beat him just once in any sport. He strips down his Mustang to bare sheet metal. But he's caught adding a nitrous oxide kit by his mom, who swears that he will never drive that car again. Brad is arrested for street racing and Birddog, his girlfriend, is arrested for bank fraud.
Yet, things work out. Something has been orchestrating things behind the scenes to keep them all alive. Now Brad and Birddog are being steered to take on experienced drivers at the challenging Daytona road course track using Tyler's car in a 200 mile race.
