《鬥快去北美》的比賽場地是加拿大，五隊參加比賽的隊伍由位於太平洋海岸的溫哥華出發，鬥快到達比賽終點聖約翰斯市，競逐兩萬英鎊奬金。
比賽旅途設有七個中途站，今集五隊會由溫哥華出發，鬥快前往前住位於海達瓜依的第一個中途站-特勒爾。
原本信心滿滿的一對中學摯友Tricia和Cathie，出師不利幾經辛苦才能離開比賽的起點史丹利公園展開比賽。因眼疾視力日益惡化的Tricia很快便感到自己成了拍擋Cathie的負累。
對關係疏遠的兄弟隊伍Marc和Michael來說，他們需要找到合作的方式，更需要讓哥哥Marc克服其焦慮和恐懼感才能在比賽中前進。
比賽隊伍中的唯一一對夫妻檔，丈夫Mobeen是性格開朗的矯形外科醫生，而任職精神科醫生的妻子Zainib 則非常喜愛動物。由於他們希望藉著比賽體驗不同的事物，他們決定取道一個滑雪勝地前往中途站，卻因為當地有限的公共交通服務被困山中，需要發揮他們自身的魅力解決難題。
其中一隊參賽隊伍是父女Ladi和Monique，父親Ladi認為這次比賽是教育他被受溺愛的女兒主Monique了解世界的絕佳機會。比賽的挑戰在第一個賽段已讓Monique受到試練。
另一對父女檔是Kevin和Claudia，為了到達Claudia認為必看的景點──原始的大熊雨林。兩父女需要與棘手的加拿大交通系統周旋，促使Kevin作出了對他們的比賽有重大影響的決定，同時也揭開了他們的傷疤。
各隊都想成為第一隊到達終點，贏得可觀的2萬英鎊的獎金。但隨著比賽展開，偶然的邂逅、文化及入生的領悟一一展現，加上令人神往的地點，將深深烙印在各參賽者的人生。

The teams set off from Vancouver – perched at the edge of the Pacific Ocean - and must navigate their way north to the first checkpoint, Tlell on the island of Haida Gwaii.
Despite being super-confident at the start line, best friends since school Tricia and Cathie, struggle to get out of the starting point of Stanley Park, the sacred peninsula where the race kicks off. Due to a deteriorating eye condition, Tricia quickly feels a burden, struggling to read the map and negotiate the busy Vancouver streets.
It’s straight into the deep end for brothers Marc and Michael who barely know one another. They need to find a way of working together because upon hitting Vancouver Island, they realise they have a narrow window of time to get off it again if they are to reach the first checkpoint without being days behind the other teams. They have to do so by navigating a long list of Marc’s anxieties and fears.
When it comes to asking for help, husband and wife, Zainib and Mobeen are chalk and cheese. Bubbly orthopaedic surgeon Mobeen will talk to anyone but psychiatrist Zainib prefers animals to people. Together, they’ll need all the charm they can muster as their decision to ski at the resort of Whistler leaves them stranded in the mountains without any access to public transport heading north whatsoever.
52-year-old Ladi believes he has raised his daughter, and travelling partner, Monique to be a molly-coddled Princess and that the race is a perfect opportunity to educate her about the world at large.
Kevin is also travelling with his daughter and begrudgingly agrees to head to Claudia’s must-see - the pristine Great Bear rainforest. Negotiating the tricky Canadian transport system to get there leads Kevin to make a decision that could impact their race dramatically as well as bring up wounds from the past.
The race is on, and the stakes are higher than ever before as the legacy of the pandemic throws extra challenges at our travelling couples who all want to be first to the finish line and win the £20,000 cash prize. As the series unfolds we will see chance encounters, cultural as well as personal revelations and some of the most awe-inspiring locations on the planet. The thrilling unpredictability of the race is sure to change the teams lives forever.
