The number 17 car pulls into the pit road before coming to its pit stop. "Jack, you realize you got this in the bag, right?" Buddy Hubbard asks Jack Toretto as he unclips the net on Jack's window before Jack takes the water that Buddy offers him. "Season is wrapped up, man. Doesn't matter where you place."
"I'm telling you, I got intermittent miss," Jack says as he hands the water back to Buddy. "For the last two laps."
"On it!" Buddy says before turning to one of the pit crew members. "Get those plug wires!"
"Jakob! Now," Jack yells at his youngest son, who happens to be the crew member that Buddy was yelling at. Jakob nods before raising the hood of the car as Dominic, Jack's second youngest son, rushes over with his older twin brother, Jameson, right behind him.
"Hey, Pop," Jameson says as he leans against the window.
"Tell me what you see," Jack orders as he looks at his twins proudly.
"Got an oil spill going into turn two," Jameson explains as Dom nods in agreement.
"Bell's driving safe. Corbin's got a sponsor in the stands, so he's pushing it," Dom adds while Jameson looks at the other pit crews.
"You got a real problem with car 23," Jameson says while looking at that pit crew.
"Linder," Jack says with a nod as he has seen it too. Dom begins to argue with Linder's crew, who are two spaces back while Jameson flips them off. "Hey! Leave it. You too, James. He's just pissed because I got that spot in the Busch Series next season, not him. Life's got no shortage of guys like Kenny Linder."
"You're good!" Jakob tells him as he closes the hood before patting it.
"It's not about being the stronger man, Dom, James," Jack advises his oldest sons, as Dom clips the net back. "It's about being the bigger one." Jack takes off back onto the track. Linder follows behind him before bumping into the back of another car.
"I swear to god, this guy," Dom says as he shakes his head while watching the race before Jameson puts his headset back on.
"Pop, turn two, turn two!" Jameson reminds his father about the oil spill.
"Got it. I'm walking him in," Jack says as he drives high on the track as he sees the oil spill that Jameson had mentioned, causing Linder to drive into it which causes him to slightly lose control and bump into the wall. "Tell me what you both see." Dom and Jameson quickly move to where they can see the rest of the track.
"He's gonna come at you for that," Dom says as he keeps looking between his dad and Linder while Jameson keeps an eye on the track further up. "Get ready on your left." Linder drops to Jack's left while Jack looks down at his dash as it begins to make noise. Linder bumps into Jack, causing his car to turn before connecting with the wall as it catches fire. The car rolls as it's hit by another car while Jameson rips his headset off before running towards the track with Buddy right behind him. Buddy grabs Jameson, holding him back from being ran over as he cries and yells for his dad while Dom holds onto Jakob, trying to shield the younger Toretto from the sight.
