Ricard Arlen, who'd been a "regular" with the P-T output since the early 1940s, stars as daredevil auto racer Cliff Jordan. Opting for a safer profession, Jordan forms a trucking firm with his somewhat more even-tempered pal Jerry (Richard Travis).

Though billed third, Jean Rogers has little to do other than register concern over the carefree Jordan. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
