Greg is the odd one out at home - he doesn't like computers and isn't a brain like the rest of the family. He's bored at school and misunderstood at home. When Greg stumbles upon Brad, a mechanic who works on and drives rally cards, Greg suddenly finds his niche. Against his fathers wishes a bond forms between Brad and Greg, and as the two work together to win on the circuit Greg grows in confidence in his chosen sport. The family must come to realise the strength in each of its members ...not matter what that strength might be.
