Plot
Two years after the end of the World Race, Dr. Peter Tezla continues to study the information he gathered on the Wheel of Power while it was still in his possession. However, he finds that Gelorum has returned now fully repaired with her army of Racing Drones having been upgraded and she is attempting to get the Wheel of Power again. He enters Highway 35, trying to stop the Drones but fails and is greatly injured just as the Drones finally get the Wheel. He manages to escape back to Earth and the Drones begin to turn Hot Wheels City into their new headquarters.
Meanwhile, in California, Vert, Kurt, Taro, and Markie have now joined street racing teams the Teku and the Metal Maniacs. During a race on a cliff side, Gig arrives, telling the former World Race drivers that Tezla needs their help. Arriving at Tezla’s old base from the World Race, with some of their new teammates for extra help, they find it partially destroyed. When Kadeem appears and takes them to the AcceleDrome, Tezla's new base, which consists of a massive track that loops around the inside of a large cavern hidden inside a mesa, he appears on a hologram in the middle of the cavern and tells them what he has found: new knowledge from the Wheel's research. Now that the Wheel has been taken from its stand in Highway 35, the Drones have control over the dimension’s portals. But the Wheel was not the final part of the Acceleron's test.
Each of the symbols on the wheel represents one of the Racing Realms, dimensions that have tracks that go through a single element in the hardest way possible for driving conditions. (There are fifteen Realms that are in the series, three that the Drones have already completed before the beginning of the series, so they don't show up, only the AcceleChargers, but there are more realms in the card game.) The Drones have been entering the Realms, and each time a Realm is finished, the first driver to reach the end of the track obtains an AcceleCharger, which gives a car the ability to drive through any condition that relates to the realm that it was won in. Discovering that a hologram of the Wheel is always in sync with the actual Wheel, a large hologram acts as a portal to the Racing Realms, the drivers enter the realms to try to stop the Drones, but find it harder than the World Race because the Wheel itself decides when to open the realms and that each realm only stays open for an hour with no other way out.
As the race to stop the Drones rages on, drivers are trapped in the realms, grudges between the teams grow, and a new enemy force appears that attempts to defeat both the Drones and the humans. The race goes on as the secret of the Acceleron's test comes to unveil itself: the AcceleChargers are the keys to having the Wheel of Power open the portal to the Acceleron home world.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“But, when to Sin our byast Nature leans,
The careful Devil is still at hand with means;
And providently Pimps for ill desires:
The Good Old Cause, reviv’d, a Plot requires,
Plots, true or false, are necessary things,
To raise up Common-wealths and ruine Kings.”
—John Dryden (1631–1700)
“There saw I how the secret felon wrought,
And treason labouring in the traitor’s thought,
And midwife Time the ripened plot to murder brought.”
—Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
