Synopsis

Tyler Means would love to race any kind of car he could get his hands on, but with his dad confined to a wheelchair and unable even to work, his family is struggling just to pay the bills. Then Tyler finds an old race kart in a pile of scrap metal. The adventure comes as Tyler tries to turn the kart into a competitive racer again, even though he has little money and even less of an idea how to do it.
