Incensed, Motorcycle Boy sends his motorcycle flying into Biff. Motorcycle Boy arrives dramatically on his motorcycle and this distracts Rusty James who is gashed by Biff in the side with a shard of glass. The two battle, with the fight ending when Rusty James disarms Biff and beats him almost unconscious. Rusty James visits his girlfriend, Patty, then rendezvous with his cadre and walks to the abandoned garage lot, where Biff and his buddies suddenly appear. Steve mentions that Rusty James' older brother, "The Motorcycle Boy," would not be pleased with the fight as he had previously created a truce forbidding gang fights, or "rumbles." Rusty James dismisses him, saying that Motorcycle Boy (whose real name is never revealed) has been gone for two months, leaving without explanation or promise of return. Accepting the challenge, Rusty James then talks with his friends - the wily Smokey, loyal B.J., and nerdy Steve - who all have a different take on the forthcoming fight. Set in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the film begins in a diner called Bennys Billiards, where local tough guy Rusty James is told by Midgit that rival group leader Biff Wilcox wants to meet him that night in an abandoned garage lot for a fight. It was published in 1975, and made into a film in 1983.
