A greedy CEO's sordid plans to close NASCAR's most popular race track launches a quaint North Carolina mountain town into an uproar that threatens to end a fifty-year tradition and pits three generations of racing's most legendary family, the Atkins, against the Paper Mill that is the lifeblood of the community. Led by his female friend, Madison McHenry, Ricky Atkins and his family fight the powerful corporation through an employee buyout that will ultimately save the Tow String Motor Speedway and end a half-century of pollution that is killing the renowned Tow String River. The Atkins family's supreme faith provides perseverance through murder and mayhem that allows them to accomplish their objective, while bridging the two distinctly different social classes that make up the town of Crystal Springs.
