If he can survive long enough to prove himself worthy, that is!

The A-R-C is in Paris for a three day racing event, during the opening of the newest attraction - the new LOUVRE TOWER.

When pro jet-racer, Colt Kasabian, was injured in a horrific accident, they said he's never race again. And now he's back and better than ever thanks to the new CYBER-ENHANCEMENT technology.

While on tour at a tropical island paradise, the team finds themselves facing off against a pack of sky-thieves - one of whom has an eye for Maggie.

When Maggie is involved in an accident during a race, that appears to have resulted in the fatality of a rival pilot, she is suspended from the A-R-C pending an investigation. But it soon becomes apparent that the 'deceased' pilot is very much alive, and working with Fly-Girl - an agent of Black Cloud - to get her permanently black-listed from pro-racing.
When Trey's estranged parents (medical workers on an aerial clinic vessel) crash-land in THE OUTBACK - a remote island prison colony where the worst criminals are living out a life sentence - it's up to Trey and Johnny to rescue them.
