Lightning goes to the old Thomasville Speedway location to practice a little by himself.

Once he starts his engine he notices he isn’t alone, there is another car beside him, and who else is it but the fabulous Hudson Hornet?

Lightning is overwhelmed and says hello, oh my Ford you’re back, and the like, and Doc returns back the welcomes as well.

The two race, they haven’t raced for years.
And Lightning hasn’t felt this happy for years either.

Lightning finishes the race after three laps with Doc, and celebrates his victory a little, calling out to his mentor.

But he isn’t there.

He was never there.
