Good movie about a comeback to win The Motorcycle Nationals.
Wish the ending would have told more.
Just be sure you own a VCR player. It came to be in VHS.

If you aren't a fan of AMA flat track racing, you probably won't find much of interest here. The story plot is quite predictable and centers around the relationship of aging racer (Craig T, Nelson) and a young boy that he meets in the hospital. The old racer is in the hospital recovering from a racing injury and the young boy is a cancer patient. They form a bond and teach each other several life lessons. I liked the racing sequences and the on track shots of many of the racers of the day. (Scott Parker, Jay Springsteen, Chris Carr) The announcing of Dave Despain also adds some authenticity to the movie. George Roeder III is Nelson's body double for the racing sequences. I liked the movie a lot, but you may not unless you have some experience with AMA racing.

Craig T. Nelson did a great job in this down to earth American, hart warming, full of love to ride movie. This movie is for anybody who has the PRIDE to be AMERICAN attitude or would like to have it. Thank you, Craig.

the movie was great its one of thoses movies you need to watch alone and eat popcorn and watch over and over again, its a must see foe anyone accept kids.
