This stock-car movie runs in low gear and out of gas before the opening credits finish rolling. The British racing tale follows Katie Glebe (Rona Anderson) as she battles to keep her father's garage open after he is killed in a race. She gets some help from American racer Larry Duke (Paul Carpenter), but runs into a roadblock in Turk McNeil (Paul Whitsun-Jones), an unsympathetic creditor who wants to foreclose on the garage. Turk gets even angrier when his girl, Gina (Susan Shaw), takes a liking to Larry, who gets beaten up and nearly dies in a rigged race. As movie heroes are known to do, Larry makes a comeback to win the big race and walks off with the girl. leave a comment
