Summary:
It's the year 2050 and America is controlled by an all-powerful corporate government ruled by The Chairman. The masses have been brainwashed with violent virtual-reality entertainment. The event of the year is a race in which a motley crew of violent drivers compete in a cross-country race, scoring points for running people over and driving each other off the road. The reigning champion and fan favorite, Frankenstein, wants to take the crown, but his rebel spy co-pilot threatens his legacy.
