Sounds like a movie I would like to see. Is it still available from a store or the internet or was it maybe a used copy, as I would like to have one? I have the movie Heart Like a Wheel about Shirley Muldowney and it is ok for a winter pastime. I remember those days with Jungle Jim and Jungle Pam. She is still around and making personal apperances at some Nostalgia events.

I love those old racing movies. Moe, you probably remember going to the movies to see American Graffiti, I think i saw it nine or ten times at the old theater in Berea. My all time favorite. 8-) The second movie More American Graffiti was good too. Love watching the old slingshot dragsters, and that's coming from a diehard door car guy.

I remember going to the indoor theater in Winchester Ky when it first came out!!!!!! It was something to see because drag racing didn't get any news coverage back then.
