■ Overview

Nick, a 17-year-old race driver, has spent his life chasing speed, but now, the stakes are higher than ever. Haunted by the loss of his older brother in a Formula 1 crash and with his little sister trapped in an unbreakable coma, Nick is thrust into a race unlike any other—a race that isn’t just about winning but about facing his fears and rewriting destiny.

Guided by the enigmatic Dr. Frank, Nick enters the legendary Monster Race, a high-stakes, otherworldly competition where reality bends, and dreams hold power. But standing in his way is the mysterious Mr. Kaos, a racer shrouded in shadow, feared by all who dare challenge him.

As engines roar and tires screech, Nick must push beyond his limits—not just to cross the finish line, but to save his sister and every child lost to the darkness of Zoryki. In this battle between courage and chaos, one question remains…

Can a dream change reality?
