Plot

Toby Marshall is a talented auto mechanic and racer. Since childhood, he liked to mess with toy cars. Now the guy is professionally engaged in tuning cars. And he has fun after work, participating in illegal races. The main character perfectly controls his car, feeling every turn and turn on the track. However, after the death of his father, he finds himself in a difficult situation. His parent owed a large sum of money to credit organizations. And now, if the funds are not returned on time, Toby will have to say goodbye to the family auto repair shop.

Where can I get a tidy amount quickly? Toby begins to sort out the options. In the meantime, the young man’s school friend, Dino, offers him a profitable business - to drive a very expensive “car” to sell it at a much higher price. Toby agrees to get into this adventure only because he urgently needs money. However, nothing good comes of this venture. The comrade turns out to be a real scoundrel and insidiously substitutes the main character. As a result, the main character is accused of manslaughter of a man whom he did not commit.

The young man is convicted. Now he has to spend in prison for two whole years. However, Marshall does not despair, dreaming of quickly being free. He makes plans for the revenge of Dino, who did so meanly to him. And two years later, the gates of the prison open wide, and Toby gets the long-awaited freedom. Now the auto mechanic is ready to do anything to avenge his former friend. He is going to take part in a deadly race with Dino, who has been enjoying life all this time.

The guy does not have a car on which you can win on the track with serious opponents. Fortunately, he still had loyal comrades who help solve this problem. Now he has a powerful sports car, therefore, the chances to win the upcoming battle in the race against Dino. Toby is well aware that his opponent will play a dirty game this time too. However, he is an excellent racer and confident in his abilities.

And so the main character stands on the starting line, along with several equally desperate drivers. At stake is serious money and the reputation of each of them. But Toby is more concerned not with victory, but with revenge ...
