Running on Empty

Thrill-seeking street racing enthusiast Mike speeds through the streets in his high-performance Ford Falcon GT-HO Phase III, accompanied by his trusted mechanic and best friend Tony, who balances his passion for racing with his day job as a steel worker.

In the early 1980s, Australia's hot cars, beautiful women, and thrilling experiences come together in this film. The story begins when two local street racers challenge Fox, the fastest street drag racer, to a three-round competition. However, as the races progress, the stakes shift from a friendly game to a fight for survival.
