As the MX-5 Cup ignites at Daytona International Speedway, rookie Sally Mott dives into the fierce world of racing, where alliances shift as fast as the gears. Heather Hadley, in her pivotal second season, fights to prove herself as a true contender. Meanwhile, former champion Shea Holbrook aims to establish herself as one of the sport's few female team owners.
The series continues at Sebring Raceway, where Sally feels the weight of her father's pressure to perform at her highest level. Meanwhile, Shea successfully balances life and racing, with her two star drivers consistently advancing to the podium. For Heather, the mounting pressure to juggle her racing career, college, and her relationship is starting to overwhelm her.
Tensions rise as Sally grapples with tough lessons about the fine line between playing fair and playing nice. Each misstep brings its own consequences, reminding her that past mistakes have a way of catching up. Meanwhile, Heather faces a notoriously perilous track at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna SECA, hoping her crash-prone past doesn't come back to haunt her.
Midway through the season, racing costs pile up. After multiple incidents, Sally must race clean to stay in the game. Shea toughens her approach, pushing her drivers to elevate performance in pursuit of the podium. Meanwhile, Heather's inconsistent results leave her wondering if it's too late to turn things around.
Shea turns her focus to Westin Workman and sets her sights on the rookie championship. Sally chases her season-long deal with Brad that he'll dye his hair pink if she cracks the top 10. Heather is determined to reset her bad luck streak and focus forward, but after two costly wrecks, she reaches a breaking point, questioning if there's a future for her in this sport at all.
The final race weekend at Petit Le Mans Road Atlanta is the last chance to leave a mark. Shea pushes for the rookie championship, but a shocking incident halts her momentum. With an uncertain future, Heather hopes for a smooth weekend. Meanwhile, Sally stuns everyone on track. Have they done enough to secure their spots for next season? And at what cost?
