Plot Overview

The movie's story focuses on the central character - Dicky St. Jon (played by Mark Borchardt), the lead protagonist, who owns a used vehicle dealership. He is drowning in debts and has to rescue his business before it falls under insolvency. To offset his financial insecurities, Dicky proposes a high-stakes wager to his regional racetrack-owning competitor, Mak (played by Nick Searcy).
