Plot[edit]
In North Carolina, Ricky Bobby (Will Ferrell) is a man who grew up dreaming of going fast. Born in the backseat of a racing car on country roads while his father, Reese (Gary Cole), accidentally missed the turnoff for the hospital due to driving too fast, Bobby grew up not knowing his father, only seeing him once in 10 years where he was kicked out of Bobby's school for inappropriate behavior. As an adult, while working on the pit crew of Dennit Racing driver Terry Cheveaux (Adam McKay), Bobby acts as a replacement driver after Terry decides to take a bathroom break while in last place. After finishing third in the race, Bobby gains fame and fortune at Dennit Racing. While racing, he meets his future wife Carley (Leslie Bibb), after she flashes her breasts.
Years after winning several championships, Bobby persuades Dennit Racing to field a second team for his best friend Cal Naughton Jr. (John C. Reilly). Bobby and Naughton become an unstoppable duo on the track, but are soon introduced to their new teammate, openly gayFrenchFormula One driver Jean Girard (Sacha Baron Cohen). The Frenchman soon outperforms both Bobby and Naughton to become Dennit Racing's latest success story. Desperate to win, Bobby exceeds his limitations and crashes at Lowe's Motor Speedway. His declining performance subsequently gets him fired from his team; furthermore, Carley divorces him and leaves him for Naughton, causing Bobby to fall into depression and falling out with Naughton, despite the latter still calling Bobby his best friend and frequently calling to do social activities.
Bobby moves in with his mom Lucy (Jane Lynch), and brings his two disobedient sons Walker (Houston Tumlin) and Texas Ranger (Grayson Russell) with him while taking a job as a pizza delivery man. His luck worsens when he loses his driver's license after colliding with a woman pushing a shopping cart and hitting a police officer, reducing Bobby to riding the bus or a bicycle to deliver pizzas. Meanwhile, Lucy is determined to reform her two disrespectful grandsons.
With his life at rock bottom, Bobby's estranged father Reese returns to remind him how to drive, using unorthodox methods such as putting a live cougar in his car, and forcing him to escape the police. When his father leaves him again after causing trouble at an Applebees restaurant, Bobby's former assistant Susan (Amy Adams) persuades him to return to NASCAR, since it is in his nature to drive fast. They quickly develop a romantic relationship when Bobby takes Susan's advice and races at Talladega Superspeedway. Bobby makes amends with Carley, Girard, and Naughton, while uniting with his pit crew chief and close friend Lucius Washington (Michael Clarke Duncan). With limited sponsors, Bobby's car is painted with a cougar to remind him of his passion. At the start of the race, Bobby flies from last place to pass all of the drivers except Girard. In the closing laps, Naughton uses a slingshot technique for Bobby to pass Girard.
The replacement driver of Bobby's Wonder Bread car causes a massive wreck that takes out the field, except Bobby and Girard. On the final lap of the race, Bobby and Girard collide, wrecking their vehicles. Bobby and Girard exit their cars and begin running towards the finish line. Bobby reaches the line first, however both are disqualified for getting out of their cars. As Naughton takes the checkered flag, Girard offers Bobby a handshake, but Bobby responds by kissing him on the lips. Carley asks Bobby to move back in with her and start over, but he chooses to stay with Susan instead. At the end of the event, Bobby is congratulated in the parking lot by Reese; Bobby declares that it was no longer about winning, knowing that he has a family who loves him no matter where he finishes. He, his family and Susan leave to go back to Applebees.
In a post credits scene, Grandma Lucy is shown reading a story to Walker and Texas Ranger, both having fully been disciplined by her and are now presented as polite, respectful children.

Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby received positive reviews from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 71%, from 184 reviews. The site's critical consensus reads: 'Though it occasionally stalls, Talladega Nights' mix of satire, clever gags, and excellent ensemble performances put it squarely in the winner's circle.'[4] On Metacritic, the film has a score of 66 out of 100, from 33 critics, indicating 'generally favorable reviews.'[5]
British magazine Total Film gave it a perfect five-star rating, with the following verdict: 'Forget the recent blips; Ferrell is back in freewheeling form. More than just the year's funniest film, Talladega Nights is one of the best films of the year.'[6] Automotive journalist Leo Parente said, 'the most accurate racing film ever, trust me,' while emphasizing that he was not being sarcastic.[7]
Box office[edit]
The film grossed $148.2 million in the U.S. and Canada and $14.8 million in other territories for a total worldwide gross of $163 million.[8]
The film grossed $47 million in its first week, earning No. 1 film at the box office.($69.1 million), it is the second largest opening for a film starring Will Ferrell.
Promotional[edit]
The former Supercars Championship team, Britek Motorsport, incorporated the Talladega Nights logo into the paint scheme for the 2006 Enduro Cup, appearing in three races, including the Sandown 500 and the Bathurst 1000. The pit crew also wore suits that matched the ones Ricky's wears in the movie while the logo appeared on the car.
The Supercars also featured Talladega Nights in a Drive-In Night event at Skyline Blacktown on the 2nd of August, 2018, to promote the upcoming race at Sydney Motorsport Park that weekend.
Both Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly appeared at the 2006 MTV movie awards in June of that year, in character, to promote the film. The two presented the award for 'Best Comedic Performance'.
Home media [edit]

Real-world homage[edit]
On the final lap of the 2009 Aaron's 499 (one of two Sprint Cup Series races at Talladega Superspeedway), Carl Edwards crashed after Brad Keselowski made contact with his car on the final lap. His car turned backwards, went airborne, bounced off and crushed Ryan Newman's hood, flew into the catch fence, and came to a stop on the track apron. At this point, his car was just beyond the pit-road exit, as Keselowski and Dale Earnhardt, Jr. crossed the finish line. Edwards climbed out of his car and jogged to the finish line. He received a standing ovation from the crowd. Fox play-by-play commentator Mike Joy commented on how it was 'shades of Ricky Bobby.[10]' Edwards was later asked about this on Larry King Live; he responded, 'I'm kind of a Will Ferrell fan. He did that at the end of Talladega Nights.'[11]
At the 2012 Aaron's 499 at Talladega, Kurt Busch's unsponsored No. 51 Phoenix RacingChevrolet used Ricky Bobby's 'ME' paint scheme. Busch and his team were heard reciting movie lines over the team radio. He was running up front when contact from behind sent him spinning. In October 2013, Busch's No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Chevrolet was sponsored by Wonder Bread for the fall race at Talladega. Its paint scheme was based on Ricky's original No. 26.[12]
During qualifying at the 2013 United States Grand Prix, Sebastian Vettel and his race engineer Guillaume 'Rocky' Rocquelin made reference to the movie over team radio when Vettel posted the fastest lap and gained pole position. The pair referenced the movie in saying 'shake and bake' over the team radio, the same phrase used by Bobby and Naughton.[13]
