How about Return to Macon County with Nick Nolte? Love the line "Are you
Ready"... "I WAS BORN READY"
Something about a Shoebox on laughing gas gets me off
While we are talking about drag movies, what is the name of the flick
where the star's Mopar gets run off the road and he puts the 426 in a
primer grey Willy's. Anyone know the name of that one? My favorite scene
in that movie is the guy with the Hertz rent-a-car that blows the motor
on the quarter mile....Been there....
