Actually a decent Motorcycle Racing Based Film especially since it was made for TV. All the Racing Sequences were overseen by Real AMA Dirt Track Racers who were Former Grand National Champions (Jay Springsteen,Chris Carr,Gene Romero were Race Sequence Cordinators,so they made the Racing Scenes Look Legitimate. George Roeder II was actually doing the Racing as Frank Shelby. Roeder is the 2nd generation of a famous AMA Motorcycle Racing Family. His Dad George Sr was a well known professional racer going back to the 1950's. George II spent almost 25 yrs on the AMA Pro Racing Circuit carrying National Number 66 starting in 1986-2010. Certainly a more Realistic Film on Dirt Track Motorcycle Racing than the Dated "Pace that Thrills" (1952) which actually put a negative on Racers especially the part played by Actor Bill Williams (Dusty Weston) who did some Stunts in a Race that would have gotten you Banned by the AMA Today. I had forgotten about this Film until I saw Craig T Nelson playing a Character in "Sheldon" and remembered that he did an actually good acting Performance in this made for TV Film.
