Fast Track

Famed orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Richard Beckett, returns to his home town of Eagle Ridge after boyhood friend and track owner, Chris Chandler, offers him a job as a safety and medical officer at the speedway. When a driver is killed in a crash at the track, Chandler needs Beckett for the job even more. But Beckett is more interested in finding out what caused the wreck than in signing a contract.

Beckett hires bubble gum-chewing track brat Nando (Marc Daniel) as his assistant. In an intimate chat that grows hotter by the minute, Mimi questions Beckett about his history with Nicole and his rivalry with Chandler. Kennedy (Randy J. Goodwin), the track tow driver, who dreams of getting a ride, interrupts their liaison by bringing Moss' wrecked car for Beckett to examine.

Beckett is harassed by a lovesick teen whose mechanic father has illegally modified a racer's car.

A former con man turned evangelist sets up his tent on the track's infield, arousing both suspicion and support.

Beckett and his surgeon father are reunited while attempting to save an aging driver in need of a liver transplant.

Financial troubles plague Servine Racing and one of the sponsors is worried. Meanwhile, Beckett continues to monitor Chandler's health, warning him to eliminate as much stress as he possibly can. But Chandler has no desire to, for he has big plans for his speedway's expansion.
