Story takes place three years after a civil war erupted, the United States declared martial law, and an entire city was turned into a massive prison camp. Levy plays a terrorist who plans to release sarin into the country's water supply. The state's governor holds a "death race" within the prison, promising freedom to the team that brings the terrorist back, dead or alive.

* ExecutiveMeddling: The reason why this movie is so cheap.



* MoneyDearBoy: Averted. ICP appeared in the movie not necessarily for the pay check (although it helped), but to brush up on their acting skills to star in their own movies, ''Film/BigMoneyHustlas'' and ''Film/BigMoneyRustlas''.
* OldShame: Averted again. ICP knew the movie wouldn't be particularly good when they made it, and called it "terribly shitty" and "the bootleg ripoff fake version" of ''Film/DeathRace''. But they still didn't ''regret'' making it, because TheAsylum's cheapness inspired them to aspire to try to make [[Film/BigMoneyHustlas a better movie]] on a low budget, by not being as cheap as The Asylum.

A [[TheMockbuster very obvious cash-in]] of ''Film/DeathRace'' that ironically has more in common with ''Film/DeathRace2000'' than the "official" remake, which was DarkerAndEdgier than ''Death Race 2000''. This one is more reliant on over-the-top, [[BlackComedy fucked up comedy]] (it also has strong influences from ''{{Grindhouse}}'', particularly ''Death Proof''). ''Death Racers'' stars Music/InsaneClownPosse and WWE's Scott "Raven" Levy.
