    I got it on DVD, its almost worn out. I love that movie, 'Get me outta here pal!'

    Edit, Haha I posted befor I read your blog! It is a great line though. Canned Heat is one of the greatest white blues bands of all time, I still cant believe such a voice could come out of that bear of a guy!

    Doc.

    Of everyone I know, YOU must watch this.

    It's the best of it's era, and the Canned Heat tracks are unreal. A must if you like drag racing.

    A different vocabulary for most back then. Noticed that all thru the film. Wicked video.

    Thanks Ryan, watched that little clip 3 times. Need to see the whole thing.

    It's fun contrasting then and now and seeing how we have "progressed".

    I've always kinda thought of that movie as the coolest parts from TLB, AG, Hot Rod etc. all rolled into one. Except this one is the real deal. No actors or scripts, just racers and race cars.

    I'm glad I could be the one to show it to you. I think it was the very first time that I hd Blake, DW, and Nick over to our new house, I made them watch it too.:)

    Rick Stewart is one of the best guys you will ever meet. He runs the Starting line at ALL NHRA National events to mere perfection. If he ever looks in your window when your on the line, you know something is happening, good or bad, and you better do as he says. God I love Drag Racing.

    Gives a pretty good view of Lions, for those who never ran there or saw the place. Note how he staged FAR left. That starting line groove was different every time. Great clip.

    I loved "7-Second Love Affair" and it had mysteriously eluded me too 'til about two years ago when King Chassis loaned me his. It did give you a great glimpse of Lions for the unfortunate people like me that never had the chance to make that pilgrimage. Great subject filmed at a great location at a great time in history. A magic formula that they probably didn't even realize they were putting together back then. Well that does it.....I'm headed over to the DVD player after I type type this to start it up......again!
     
  21. Yeah great flick! I was introduced to it by King Chassis too one afternoon at his pad.

    Ohhh yeah. I'm telling y'all, people from that era were just cool.

    No pretense, just your average American mentalities...

    Gotta get that movie!
     
  28. Have to see if "The Hotrod Company" carries this... because I can get a HAMB discount from Mike!
