How did this movie not win an arm load of Oscars?

The outdoor scenes of L.A. in the '30s are worth the watch alone.

Love seeing those old cars in action.

I wish I could show you folks the photo of my grandpa in the car he won the Indy 500 in back in the days shown here!

Please tell us your grandpa’s name! If he won the 500 he is famous! Sure would like to know.

Well, this is just plain 'madcap' ! ! ! And, that kid is/was pretty darn acrobatic!........Those race crashes were brutal. No safety harnesses, no roll cages, no fire suit gear.....just balls of steel. Men were men in those days.

And women were raised to be 'ladies'! Hollywood should be ashamed of the garbage they've been putting out for years now. Which I haven't watched anything from them in years. This is a great film and thank you for uploading it for many of us to watch!

​@@zillionsofpebbles879Dude, this was raw footage of how racing used to be. Today It is modern and safe. A leather helmet and no seat belt or roll cage shows that they were tougher than us...

Movie ahead of its time

What a feel good film=The kind we don't see anymore. Thanks so much for putting this one on here for everyone to enjoy~!!!

This could have been a great series like the Perils of Pauline!

This is truly a fun film! Watching this young man made me feel "energized," & with these aunts we can certainly see why he appeared ready for the olympic games the way he moved so quickly . This is an enjoyable film from start to finish,especially the "athlethicism" he displayed in getting to that race on time & winning when those crooked people believed they had everything all set up. Lol never count those chickens before they hatch because one may come up short & they certainly did! Much Gratitude for the share & notifications that i never miss a new upload :)

Well worth watching, very entertaining film. The Barn Dance was jammin'!

Great movie from the 30’s.

Love this! I never saw this on TCM's line-up and I watched a lot of TCM back in the day. Fantastic!

It was a gem!

enjoyed it...thank you for posting

You are turning into our BIGGEST fan! THANKS!

Many of the scenes of the race were shot at Exposition Park in San Luis Obispo, CA, Exposition was a dirt track popular on the race circuit and where Barney Oldfield, among other well known racers and top race mechanics, often raced. The track is no longer there, since the late 1970s it is crappy condominiums.

I agree about him. But the plot is stupid. On the other hand, there are great scenes of Los Angeles before everything was covered over with asphalt and concrete. It's all gone now.

Gee this movie was swell!
