Pomona: a gigantic arena where Car Warriors, their high-performance machine armed with high-tech weapons, duels to the death on network TV.

Palm Springs: a battered oasis in the desert, once the playground of the rich and famous, now temporary home to a rag-tag army of outlaws.

Val Paladin--area champion, darling of the TV ratings. Vanna Kreig--Skynet executive, who'll do anything to keep those ratings high. Bambi Starr--up-and-coming duelist who has the body of an angle but fights like a demon. Iggy Mengele--pint-sized outlaw with a big score to settle with Paladin.

What will happen when the pampered pests of the arena face the raging horde of Iggy's outlaws--men and women who've come Back from Hell?

Welcome to the world of the Car Warriors--the freeways of the future, where the right of the way goes to the biggest guns.
