This week, Officers Jim Reed (Kent McCord) and Pete Malloy (Martin Milner) try to stem an epidemic of reckless drag-racing in the streets of LA. Their hotheaded colleague Ed Wells (Gary Crosby) is all for locking up the culprits and throwing away the key, but Jim and Pete are of the opinion that the drivers' energy can be rerouted to the safer confines of a local race track. The multifaceted Dick Clark appears as a compassionate racing promoter in this episode, another of several Jack Webb productions produced with the endorsement of the National Hot Rod Association.
