This film is part of a three film collection focusing on racing driver Trevor Twaites, documenting races he participated in. All of the films within this collection were commissioned on behalf of the British Racing & Sports Car Club (Northern centre). In terms of visual composition, the camera throughout the collection is positioned at eye level with the race track, thus the filmmaker is able to replicate the type shots a professional television company might produce, which is thanks to unrestricted access to the racetrack and behind the scenes areas. The film opens with a man performing tricks on a motorised go-kart in a race track car park. The shot that follows is of a man meticulously cleaning a race car. Mechanics then check the engine of the race car, before Trevor gets into the formula one style race car. A mechanic smiles at the camera, then the filmmaker cuts to the race track starting grid. Other racing cars are lined up on the grid, and once they are all in place, the race begins. Next are shots of cars speeding round various corners and bends of the race track. A driver pulls into the pit lane. Then in a race track admin office, two women sort papers and count money. The next shot shows several different race cars (all of different classes) parked in a field, and two men stand next to them, talking. All cars have the same decal, which reads 'Chris Meeh driving for Princess lta'. Next, the filmmaker captures a man and woman riding a moped around the race track car park, the man laughs and jokes. Another race is underway; the cars features in said race are of a different class, and clearly less powerful. Various shots show the cars going round the race course, and there are frequent glimpses of 'Shell' advertising. Following this sequence a new race starts. This time the race cars are scaled down versions of formula one cars. The filmmaker captures several snippets of the race, which show the cars speeding through chicanes and around corners. The final shot of the race shows numerous cars lined up on the grid preparing for a race to start.
