Another New Racing Movie

(1/1)

cosworth151:
Following Rush and Ford vs Ferrari, another new racing biopic movie is in the works.

Hillary Swank is going to play Janet Guthrie in the movie Speed Girl, based on the book of the same name. Guthrie was the first woman to race in both the Indy 500 and the Daytona 500. She also scored class wins twice in the 12 Hours of Sebring.

This looks like it could be a good one.

Just as long as it doesn't turn into something like Tom Cruise's 'Days of Thunder'.  ;)

Jericoke:
I remember watching Heart Like a Wheel when I was little.  I haven't rewatched it, so don't know if it stands up still, but it made me want to get into racing (not enough that I actually did though...)

Or Sylvester Stalone's Driven.  :sick:

Heart like a Wheel, about Shirley Muldowney, is a very good one, too.

Dare:
Or as long as it's not a Danica movie either. Wonder
what happened to the Bruce McLaren movie?
