Here is a 1d6 table of various groups shooting it out:
1. EDSEL v. AADA. It's the anti-duelling faction trying to blow up professional duelists; the latter wants to survive or make their living.
2. Cycle gang's cars v. Midville's MONDOs. For some reason, Midville just keeps getting attacked by cycle gangs. Note there's several other cities with civic defense forces and plenty of cycle gangs in the AADA Road Atlas volumes if you'd like a more local flavor.
3. BLUD v. AADA road duel (because autoduelling promotion organization grudge matches are fun)
4. U.S. v. Free Oil States (skip the armored fighting vehicles and go with the duelists aiding them).
5. AADA Amateur nights (low point game with everyone having choice from a few premade vehicle options). Everyone is trying to become the winner so they aren't poor and unknown.
6. AADA lasers v. rockets show (one team is laser-based and the other is rocket-based for their weapons). Two rival weapon manufacturers hire duelists to show their gear is better. . .

Or I can consider it by running a Divided North America Car Wars in 2070, between the Pacific States of America vs. The Rocky Mountain Republic at The Crashiteria in Campbell, CA.
