Pit Stop
Rick Bowman, a drag racing street punk, comes to the attention of crafty businessman Grant Willard. Willard bails him out of jail and offers him sponsorship as a stock car driver. Bowman accepts and enters the demolition derby-adjacent world of "figure eight" racing. The king of the figure eight track is cocky hotshot Hawk Sidney. Bowman and Sidney clash; Hawk's pretty friend Jolene falls victim to Bowman's charm. Bowman's gaze shifts onto Ellen McLeod, the wife of champion racer Ed McLeod. As Bowman moves up in the ranks, his regard for his friends slips- giving way to outright obsession with becoming the best.
