action

Due to the accidental death of one of his drivers, team principal Kazarian is forced to look around for a new teammate for his NASCAR driver Mike Marsh. He can win the ambitious Ned Arp for his team. After a short time, however, he realizes that Arp is not a team player, but an unscrupulous and ice cold guy. Arp approaches Kazarian's sister, which threatens to escalate tensions in the team. The waves only smoothed out when Marsh and Arp claim their first victories in some major races. When the well-known racing driver and long-time rival of Marsh, Dan McCall, arrives from Paris with his lover Gabrielle, the rivalry between the two men re-emerges. McCall is becoming increasingly interested in other women, and the beautiful Gabrielle turns to the daring Marsh.
