Nextline

In a world where your existence is determined by someone else, racing is more than sport — it’s leverage.

Corporations use advanced AI to control racers, markets, and public narrative. The fastest drivers don’t just win championships. They shape the system. A racer who doesn’t win doesn’t get a voice. A racer who wins but isn’t loud slowly fades into the background.

Mikey Hale was never meant to be part of that world.

He’s ID-less. To the elites, he doesn’t exist. He survives in the lower districts with his sister, Hailey — until a catastrophic crash pulls him into the Global Race Series. He wasn’t born to race, but he slowly learns why winning matters… and what it costs.

As corporate powers clash and technologies like teleportation and AI reshape society, the real question isn’t:

“Who is the fastest?”

It’s:

“Who decides who gets to exist?”

NEXTLINE is a three-part sci-fi racing drama about control, access, and what a “perfect win” really means.
