Get into the fast lane


A naive drifter runs away from his army father in hopes of making it on the car racing circuit.





In Las Vegas, a naïve young drifter meets a young scam artist who develops a crush on him. He is then introduced to a whole gang led by a young hustler. The racer-to-be then gets a lesson in the wild side, getting involved in one situation after another.



Patsy Kensit makes a cameo as another hustler and Daryl Hannah appears as the scam artist's surrogate mom.



Except for Patsy Kensit and Daryl Hannah, the movie is kinda lame.  I guess no one bothered to tell the director the Number 1 rule.  “What happens in Vegas STAYS in Vegas.



This movie should have stayed there.  



However, there is a nice Vette (1974) in the movie which gives us an opportunity to break out the two 1969s.  So get in your choice of the hardtop (premium) or the ragtop (standard) and tune it as you wish to a “classy” spec of 535pp , strap on a pair of racing hard tires, then join us for a day of oval/road racing at the Indy Speedway.







Now Playing:  “Speedway Junky” (1999)
When:  Saturday, July 21th, 2012
Where:  Indianapolis Motor Speedway (both the oval and the road course)
Showtimes:  Matinee- 2-5pm. Drive-in- 7-11pm (all times Eastern)
The Car(s):  Either 1969 Corvette
Horsepower Limit:  n/a
Weight Limit:  n/a
PP Limit:  535pp
Tires:  Racing Hards
Lap Count:  Enough for 3-4 races per hour (double digit laps for “oval”)





Wrules and Wrinkles:

Race Fast!  Race Hard!!  Race Clean!!!  Have FUN!!!!

Our event participation guidelines are very simple. We ask that all drivers race hard, fast and clean. Participants should control their cars as if they owned them and avoid in-race contact with others. If your actions disturb the forward progress of another driver we ask that you pull over or slow down and allow the other driver to regain his position ahead of you. Have fun!

Ok...  So maybe I spoke too soon.  Taryn Manning is in it but uncredited...

When my foots on the throttle there's no looking back
I leave the motor tickin' over when she's back on the track
I've got a 68 Chevy with pipes on the side
You know she's my idea of beauty, that's what I drive

She's got wheels, wheels of steel
She's got wheels of steel
Wheels of steel
Talking 'bout my wheels of steel
