The Runner is a 1992 action film directed by Ron Moler, featuring Terence Ford, Paris Jefferson, and Andrew Mitchell. The story takes place in Los Angeles, where a group of criminals run an underground gambling ring that revolves around illegal street racing. One of the main characters, Michael Ransom (Terence Ford), has a checkered past as a bank robber and a skilled driver. After serving time in prison, Michael returns to his hometown and wishes to start anew.

However, Michael's brother has fallen into debt with the criminal organization which runs the street races. In an attempt to pay off the debt, Michael's brother agrees to race against one of the gang's own racers, and subsequently loses his car in a bet. Michael then steps in to save his brother and decides to race on his behalf. With the help of a mechanic named Sam (Andrew Mitchell) and his sister-in-law, Rachel (Paris Jefferson), Michael begins to prepare for the race that is scheduled for the end of the week.

As Michael begins to uncover the details of the race and the dangers involved, he realizes that the stakes are higher than he ever could have imagined. The underground racing circuit is controlled by a powerful and wealthy man named Mr. Green (played by Joe Estevez), who will stop at nothing to protect his investment. Michael finds himself in a tight spot as he is confronted by the dangerous and ruthless members of the criminal organization, who are willing to do whatever it takes to win the race.

As the day of the race draws closer, Michael and his team have to navigate their way through the treacherous underworld of illegal street racing if they hope to survive. They must outsmart the cunning and ruthless Mr. Green, his loyal henchmen, and the other racers who are willing to do anything to win, even if it means risking their own lives. The race becomes a high-speed and action-packed journey that tests the limits of Michael's driving skills and his courage.
