This film focusing on the lifestyle of Malaysianmotorcyclestreet racers, who are known locally asMat Rempit. This film released in 10 August 2006 and gained a positive review from critics.
The story is about aMat Rempit named Madi who works as a dispatch boy by day and street racer by night. As a Mat Rempit, his activities at night includestreet racing and performing various Mat Rempit stunts such as thewheelie, Superman,wikang, etc.
Madi has a girlfriend named Ieka who asks him to marry her after each time they have sex. But Madi only focuses on collecting his money to buy a [Yamaha 125Z], since he only owns a modifiedHonda EX-5 which is not very powerful enough for street racing. Madi also has a best friend named Macha who gives him information about each street race that Madi is to take part in. After paying for the motorcycle in cash, Madi and Macha modify it heavily and tune it to the maximum.
After winning many street races, a challenger named Spark comes along with his gang to challenge Madi for apink slip race (i.e. the loser has to give his vehicle to the winner). Madi loses the race, and he is supposed to give away his Yamaha 125Z to Spark as promised, but Madi instead decides to run away with Spark's Yamaha TZM 150. However, Spark and his gang managed to chase him and beat him severely. Madi is severely injured and his right leg is fractured by Spark during the fight. What's worse, his motorcycle has been destroyed by Spark and his gangs. Ieka sees the incident and turns to Spark and his gang.
Six months later, Madi is no longer a dispatch boy. He is now working as a mechanic in a motorcycle workshop. One day, an underling of Spark's comes to the workshop and is beaten by Madi. After beating him, Madi asks Spark's underling for a one-make rematch race with theYamaha RX-Z. Then Macha meets Madi at the workshop and brings him toWazi's place to buy his Yamaha RX-Z. With the second-hand motorcycle bought from Wazi, Madi begins modifying and practicing with the bike once he has fully recovered.
The time for the final showdown arrives. Madi, Spark and several other Mat Rempits races alongShah Alam Expressway. Some of the Mat Rempits crash at atoll plaza while others crash at themotorcycle lane along the expressway, leaving only Madi and Spark. After a fierce challenge along the Shah Alam Expressway, Spark plays a cheap shot - he kicks Madi, causing him to skid under alorry and die after hitting his head on a road barrier. Spark, however, escapes.
The movie ends here, but during the ending credits of the movie, it is revealed that Spark has finally been arrested and jailed by the police. Meanwhile, Macha has quit being a Mat Rempit and married Ieka as a result of the tragedy that caused him to lose his best friend.
