Sunset Shimmer has dreamed of becoming a racing driver for a long time, ever since she saw a car race in person. However, she is restricted to racing virtual cars in video games, since she doesn't have the money to compete.

One day, after winning a race in a video game, she and a few lucky others get the chance to become real racing drivers. However, a lot of speculation rises in the racing world, if gamers can handle a real racecar, on a real track. Can Sunset and her team show the world that they do have what it takes?

Takes place in a separate universe from Equestria: World War II. Inspired by the Gran Turismo movie.
