Sidecar Racers (1975). Written by Jon Cleary, directed by Earl Bellamy. Starring John Clayton, Ben Murphy, Wendy Hughes, John Meillon, Peter Gwynne and Peter Graves.
Two men who don't like each other share a dream. Well, they don't really share it. One's kind of along for the ride. Which make sense, because they're a pair of sidecar racers. They're also rivals for the love of a largely indifferent woman. The Podsploiteers, never the sportiest of folks, juggle the racing and the relationships, and Callum reviews Days of Thunder.
