Pissed off rebel Kowalski accepts a challenge to drive from Denver to San Francisco in 15 hours. Fired up by a tankful of gas in his 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T with its 4-speed manual transmission, Hurst "pistol grip" shifter and controlling a 4 barrel/440 cubic inch "Magnum" V-8 engine, he begins his solitary odyssey, spurred on by a blind black DJ, Super Soul, to become 'the last American hero'.
