From the brief one-liners Joe dished out, it's abundantly clear that raising The Flash's Iris and Barry was no walk in the park. Now that Wally West is on the scene, fatherhood may become exponentially more difficult for the Central City detective.

Wally (Keiynan Lonsdale) has a need for speed. It's a desire that will no doubt come in handy when he takes on the Kid Flash mantel, but for now, his drag racing habits may put the breaks on his budding relationship with the West clan.

One thing I can say is Wally's really into drag racing, which is not the ideal thing when your father is a detective and your sister's a reporter," Lonsdale teased, according to Variety. "So that's going to cause some tension."

Will this tension manifest as a metahuman brings Central City to a crawl? Find out when The Flash returns Jan. 19 at 8 p.m. ET on The CW.
