Mike Brannon is a former war hero turned midget car racer. His ruthless racing tactics have made him successful but the fans consider him a villain and boo him mercilessly.

When she finds him earning money as a barnstorming daredevil driver hoping for a comeback, they begin to become mutually attracted.
