She and Ramone have been together ever since."

A frontrunner in the next generation of racers, Storm's quiet confidence and cocky demeanor are off-putting—but his unmatched speed threatens to redefine the sport. Trained on high-tech simulators that are programmed to perfect technique and maximize velocity, Jackson Storm is literally built to be unbeatable—and he knows it."

* "Cocky and sure of himself, Jackson Storm is a young Piston Cup rookie with his eyes focused solely on the Championship. Coming out of nowhere in the racing world, Storm trained primarily on high-tech simulators and possesses refined technique but little practical wisdom on the track. Winning has come all too easy to Storm, so he's unable to fathom defeat--yet. His uncanny precision and overconfidence may be his ultimate downfall."
