    A former criminal hits the streets of a futuristic city as the
    driver of the Viper, a police supercar.
    First up, the program is cut from the city's budget and is forced
    to move underground.
    (addenda: he was a good, fast driver of get-away cars for The Outfit.
    Julian needed a driver like that.  Julian is paralyzed from the
    waist down and no one could drive his prototype car.  They operate
    on Joe to remove his criminal memory and he becomes the driver.)

    (Before Joe Aster there was another man.  He quit because he said
    there was a problem with the car and there wasn't.  Then all of a
    sudden there is a robbery at the Viacom building.  But they had
    one problem which was Michael Patian (or Joe Aster) wrecked his 
    car with the job that they were supposed to deliver.  That was a
    satellite.  After he wrecks his car the cops delete part of his 
    memory and also change part of his physical appearance like his
    eyes and nose and other parts.  So they get him in the car and he
    loved the car.  Next the Outfit tried to throw a big obstacle out
    when they were hijacking a truck load of serum.  So he catches
    them and locks one in the car, so they get the serum back and get
    one person from the Outfit.  So the highwaymen try to get rid of 
    the Viper, but they don't and get all of the Outfit.  But the cops
    do know the Viper is still out, but Julian thinks that people are
    going to be mad that the car is still on the road.
