Life hasn’t been easy for 17-year-old Dez Truss (DeRon Horton). As the sole provider for his younger sister, Dez turned to a life of crime to make ends meet. When he’s caught boosting cars for an auto-theft ring, he’s given one last chance to set his life straight. Enter Rick Radden (Kevin Dillon), a former champion race car driver and owner of a floundering off-road truck racing team. Rick agrees to house and supervise Dez in exchange for manual labor. Using the skills he honed growing up in his dad’s auto shop, Dez quickly graduates from shop boy to vital member of Rick’s team.
