During the week they earn a living travelling North America’s highways behind the wheels of their big rig trucks. In their downtime, they meet on tracks where they drive on their own terms – and usually at dangerously fast speeds. Follow five dynamic truckers and the families and friends who support them during the exciting racing season, amid exhaust, roaring engines and burning tires, on their quest to cross the finish line in one piece and be crowned the “fastest.” Whether they’re drag racing on the streets of country towns, competing on traditional racing tracks, or going head to head in oval races in Las Vegas, they all share a common obsession: They race big trucks. And they race them fast.
