Love the rock crusher whine. Side note is that the guy I bought my M22 from many years ago sold it to me real cheap cuz it whined. Sold it for a whole bunch more than I paid for it a few years ago lol.

X3!!!

I have watched the movie many times and with the cable service, they have it On Demand all the time.

I was in High School the first time I watched it. Went to the theater with my uncle that I blame for getting hooked to drag racing. That day they had a double feature of Two Lane Blacktop and Corky with Robert Blake; I believe I paid $0.50 for the ticket as a student.

The movie had a bizarre opening of a street race between Robert Blake in a Barracuda and a 1969 Camaro.

The driver of the Camaro looks vaguely familiar. Might he be the Charger driver in Bullet?

No way! Charger driver was well into his 50's in 1968.

I've never heard or seen this Corky movie. Wild Barracuda! Typical street race with the wife in her curlers :D
