Roadracing movie

A bike version of le mans.

 

They're filming in the next couple of weeks at Road Atlanta and Atlanta Motor Speedway. Somehow I got on their email list and they have been very aggressive about recruiting racers for the film. I was signed up to do some of the Atlanta Motor Speedway stuff, but I had to cancel as my stuff will be out in Laguna still.

Hope they do a good job!

Edit: There's a lot of legit racers on the list that will be doing the riding.

 

Placement of levers on Hopper's bike makes me remember that was a la mode for Honda 305 Scramblers in 1966 Orange County.

 

Tell them to call me and buy my SV

 

Last sports movie I felt was Friday Night Lights. Grew up in the middle of it but still it was a great representation.
I agree most sports movies and in particular motorsports are best as documentaries.

 

So it's a B movie?

 

Oh come on...you know you liked it.

If they want to do a Brown Bunny scene I'm willing to be the meat stunt double.

 

Looks like the trailer is out:

 

The kid made it on screen.

 

Doesn't look horrible....

Wonder how Farrell feels about his bike bumping someone off track.

 

Probably better than if it was realistic and it just blew up

you know I raced with him a bit but don’t ever remember racing him… he took many years to get up to his peak speed…

 

Cold....

 

I believe that’s him doing the bumping.

 

Former WSMC racer is the editor for this.

Ill have to check it out.


One of his other bike movies was the classic...Torque. (asst editor then)

 

So, Farrell is the bad guy. Elbows the hero on the back straight at Rd Atl and then gets punched out in the paddock???

 

Well gee, I always rooted for the guy, him being an underdog and all. Now I don't know...should I boo him?
