Cultural time piece, otherwise corny

When I was 13 I loved this movie; I'm not 13 anymore.

Yet even when I was 13, it didn't make a lot of sense to me. What kind of race were they in? Were they trying to do more tricks, go faster, etc? It was sort of a weird combo freestyle/racing course that does not really exist (or it did not then) in "professional" BMXing. It was clearly an attempt to hybrid these two distinct BMX bike disciplines. But would you combine soccer and football to make a movie? Or cricket and baseball?

Not only that, the story is just plain corny - probably like many movies of its time and genre. I will agree that for those interested in that biking, it was a fun film.

Above all, the opening and closing credits - real freestyling, is fantastic with catchy music. I would happily watch it even now.

It's too bad this DVD is not currently available; it's a good timepiece and trip down memory lane.

a must have

you have my vote for the release, the movie was simply "awesome".

This movie is Rad!

People want this movie. I want this movie. This was a damn good positive movie. No cuss words that I can remember (except for the old dude, giving the bird) not that I care. They do use the word Hell and if you think that word is a curse word, then this movie would bring better context for use of that word. Bring on Helltrack! Lori Loughling is hot in this movie. This movie had such a positive effect on me as a youngster that I went out and got a paper route. Wow! A movie was so positive that it made me get a job. It's that good a movie, I'm waiting for it. So bring it!
