Curtis Turner, Blue Rudge Mountain boy and Ol Moonshine Runner, From my hometown, Floyd Virginia. And one of the driving forces behind the creation of Charlotte Motor Speedway. The likes of these men will never be seen again. God bless them all!!
These drivers, their families and all involved paved the way for decades of entertainment and fun. It's so unfortunate that what used to be so wonderful, has literally turned into a 170 mph, rolling billboard show, where the corporate advertisers dictate policy and rules. They've even dictated what the fans can or cannot wear or display. But I will say this... Hard times creates strong men, strong men make easy times, easy times create soft men, soft men create hard times. ♾️ Right now we're at the "soft men" part. . Do with that what you will.
I agree 💯 today's generation is soft and afraid of hard work...they sit behind a computer and eat junk food and wonder why they're fat... I've lived a long time and by far this is the worst I've seen it in years....I know things change and people work smarter not harder but it definitely shows if you look around and see all the overweight people..I wish I could show one day of my dear old grandpa working out in the field or cutting wood all day, people wouldn't believe me if I told them how hard we had to work just to get by..

Of course there's other, more polite ways of doing so other than saying "FATTYFATTYBOOMBALATTY!" 😏 Or the classic "BOOMBABBABOOM" as they waddle down the cookie isle.

I love it. It was done really well. Watching for 50 years I've seen many changes in this sport. Shame what it's become really. I moss the days when racing was racing and not a 4 quarter football ripoff sport. Rip Nascar
Really..a very good movie..plain, simple and clear, like all of it started. Thanks for laying it out on the table without all the splash and flash. This film is highly recommended..Thanks
Very good movie. Interesting to see how NASCAR got started did not realize this was a movie about racing when I first started it. I’m gonna recommend this to my sister and brother-in-law because they are big NASCAR fans. Very well presented. Thanks for sharing.
The most interesting part of this movie was meeting Mr.Nance and Nance is my last name and my dad and my family have grown up racing and do other action sports and my uncle LaVern Nance is in the hall of Fame in the Sprint car scene rather than nascar but when I heard Nance I had to ask my dad about it and it brought back memories for him
Nance was a generic name used because the real family did not give them permission to use there name. It is France by the way, and the only connection to the Nance name which was a pioneer in the Sprint Car racing world, was the fact that they were both in automobile racing. Not at that table in Daytona, but sitting at the bar within ear shot was the real man that backed Bill France, and financed NASCAR, as well as being the guarantee that they would be payed at every race. He was a wealthy businessman from Atlanta, Georgia that made his early fortunes with and underground lottery, and the liquor business. His name was Raymond Parks, and his car, driven by his cousin Loyd Seay from Dawsonville, Georgia was the first NASCAR National Champion. Without his enormous contributions, Bill France’s dream would have never been possible, and he is not even referenced a single time in this film, nor has NASCAR ever given him credit for what he did. As a side note, the name NASCAR stands for National Association Of Stock Car Auto Racing and was thought of by Red Voigt, at the infamous meeting that day at the Streamline Hotel on Daytona (Ormand) Beach.
Back in the late 50s hi uncle used to take me with them to race tracks in North Carolina. I remember one was called the dog tracks. I think another one was Moyock. They raced the same kind of cars he would take me into the pits and I thought that was the biggest thing I’ve ever done, I loved it. It was a great time for me. His car was name is Lucy. Thanks for this movie. I really enjoyed it.❤😊
Islip Speed Way, Demolition derbies , dirt track, went hard track, went wild! Right in my back yard. I grew up with the smell off burnt rubber, and bright lights. Awesome 👌.
Wow where do I start ?The year was 1968 my grandparents took me and my younger cousin to a speedway in upstate N.Y. I've been a race fan all my life. My dad died 2 1/2 years ago ,about a year before he died he purchased a 1947 Ford deluxe I guess with a flathead that was restored by a former race driver from the fifties. To bad the car had sit so long it needed work to be drivable. My dad passed away before he had much opportunity to enjoy the 47 ford . He would have loved this movie as I liked it a lot also. One thing I've learned about racing through the years is ,racing and marriage very rarely get along . Yeh I used to be a Nascar fan myself but Saturday night at the speedway I grew up at, Lebanon Valley speedway is plenty for me Thanks for the movie 🎬
Nance is a pseudonym for Bill France who organized Nascar (the France family still runs it). The first official NASCAR race was in Daytona Beach Florida in 1949. I have driven on the original track.
My daddy growled up there in high point Trinity racing and building race cars and they was lucky to have a summit racing store right there he worked for Hendricks and he used a lot of old used nascar engine parts on his 62 nova ss street car he raced every weekend and said life was so fun there on a old Tabaco road called Barney road in climax NC some of his story's as a kid they had a fun safe world back then where most people was honest
When I was about 10 years old I saw the FBI come in on my uncles ranch in Arkansas and raid a still someone had set up without him knowing (maybe). Anyway they showed it to my grandma and me before they blew it up. In the early 1960s. Everyone knew they were the police by the bulges under their shirts.

Thank you craig, what he said. We probably watched 100 movies on RUclips in the last year, I only comment on things that are out of place for the time. Did you like the movie?
30:40 If that was 2023 the mother would be saying Carrie is not who she appears to be because Carrie is a man identifying as a woman. Lord how I miss the good old days.
My Dad Raced NASCAR 1956-57 driving and Owning he Raced for 40 years the 756 and he raced 40 years more in Open Cockpit cars, Sprints ,Midgets,3/4 midgets raced every track east coast...Maine to Florida
That Ford Tudor with its modern wheels and tires was bugging me out. Not only that but I don't think a 37 was ever part of the bootleggers arsenal. Prohibition ended in 33. Not to mention the 39 Deluxe Coupe. Nothing is period correct about these cars
It also had a set of wide 5 adapter plates on it like we ran on a hobby car here in the southeast for years, so we could run wide modified wheels on a stock hub. These particular ones came from Speedway Motors.
18:20 WTF is going on with all these cars breaking down? These vehicles back then were actually dependable as hell. Wasn't that much too them to break.
If only Henry had not eaten them damn peanuts he'd have gone on to win 8 championships. RIP Henry and don't ever be eatem Dem dang ole peanuts near me or me racecar!
15:45 Wrong steering wheel. Couldn't drive that car with that tiny steering wheel, obviously it was converted to power steering which they didnt have in 38'.
My grandfather born in 1908 and passed away in 1996 told me twice at two different times that " he was glad to have lived his life at the time he lived " .My dad was born the March before crash of 1929 .Gramp saw two world wars his oldest son wounded in Europe during WW 2 buried him in 1968 and still told me he was glad to have lived his life when he did . I can't say that myself though !
This movie was so realistic...well almost. In a small part of the WWII reenactment, the soldiers out on patrol still have the creases in their pants and shirts! C'mon director, it don't take much to run the costumes through a washer one time. Everything else was spot on!
The 37 Ford had seat belts with a shoulder strap and reversed wheels. That was non Era stuff there. Also a 46 to 48 Ford was at the Racetrack before the War. So a little inaccurate on the cars.
@@dscott501 In the '30s moonshine runners would use truck wheels and suspensions for better traction and cornering. That might be what those were supposed to represent.
That was a really good movie get family movie had some good morals in it I can't remember ole boy's name that he knocked out best parts nothing but a troublemaker and woman beater he got off lucky
Oh coke a cola cake never knew that's where it came from. As a southerner I just thought it was cause they were all poor back then . Does make for one Hella of a cake. 😋
His wife is the usual downer. Marry a guy and then dictate how she will allow him to live. A constant whiner and it's always "what about me?". He was a racer when she met him so shut up!
A bottle of Tennessee & a tobacco pipe packed with good ol marijuana what a darn good look back at what I remember the past was like in my young age so long Alabama
Well,, I've read the comments and it 'pears most folk really enjoyed the movie. To me it has Hallmark written all over it and I do not like Hallmark movies. That said, I did enjoy the old cars,, 'specilly since my birth year was 1947 and most of these cars I remember seeing parked in my small town in Oregon high school parking lot. I'm gonna hang in there to the end,, maybe I'm missing something.
19:53 So this movie seems ta think everybody in the south at this time was mean as hell. I'm surprised they didn't have this actor come and say something like "What the hell you doin boy? You want me ta kill ya? You better show me some respect." I can assure you that any man that acted like they're having this one act would have been shot by his son if not his wife. But WTF, considering who runs the movie-making industry in this country, why should I be surprised?
I bet nobody would watch it if they saw how we really spoke in the south. Not so much the words.but the accent is way off. Then again the southern accent is super regional and I've never been to North Carolina just Georgia bama Florida special place in my heart for Tennessee and Kentucky West Virginia.
I knew a James Suttles, brother named Tim, father owned Suttles Trucking in Greenville SC then moved to Alabama. Would this happen to be the same James Suttles?
It's a good movie. They could have done a little more research on the cars though, the '37 with those wide radial tires and the sport rearview mirrors, one piece door windows, wide five wheel adapters, 3 point seat belts is out of place. there's a couple of cars that are out of place too, but being in the back ground make them less obvious.
At the beginning of the movie, one guy said he just got back from Greensboro, and then a short time later said Randolph Co? Is this true, was this movie made here in NC?
yep, the three main characters were from High point & Archdale nc & the Tri-City race track was near the corner of skeet club rd & Johnston St in Highpoint nc
I'm old and I was born and raised in the South and I'm here to say folks like that in the South don't talk that way maybe folks from South Carolina do...
I love these kind of time travels but loose it a bit, no, alot, when I see a 1940s car in the 1930s setting (First police chase) and among others, Bills 37 Ford Tudor has modern radial tires on it. A biiiig no no for me. Too bad on an otherwise nice movie. Also there was a 42-48 Ford parked at the race before the war. Why cant they do it right. Its not that hard. Ok Back to the movie and see if it holds up, the rest of it. Editing as I go along :)
20:23 What the hells wrong with you boy? You cant tell the difference between overheatin and the engine not gettin any fuel. You better show me some respeck!

What an amazingly good movie. The actors and everything where outstanding.

Movie done very well characters all good actors good family movie thank you
Those cars come over the finish line at about 5 mph. Very realistic directing a racing movie I must say.

Didnt think they had wide tyres in this time frame 1942 - 1943 @. 13.13 they look 9 to 10 inches.
and they were radials.
