Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby

Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby,
The number one Nascar Drive, Ricky Bobby, is a hero because of his "Win at all costs" approach. He and his racing partner, Cal Naughton, are fearless. With their "shake and bake" saying and teamwork they are able to finish all races in first and second place, Cal always being in second. Ricky goes by the saying "If you ain't first, you're last", said by his father when he was 10.

When a French Formula one driver, Jean Girard challenges Ricky for the supremacy of Nascar, Ricky must face his fears to keep his first place record.
Ricky turns into a wreck, getting in a few race accidents, the first one making him think he paralyzed from the waist down.
Finally he realizes he is okay, and trys for first against Jean again, and he failed.
Now losing his career, wife, and best friend. Ricky moves in with his mom, bringing both his sons, and catching up with his dad who he has not seen for many years. His dad begins to teach Ricky how to race once again, at first it was not working at all, but eventually Ricky learned his ways and drove again for Nascar.
