Stroker Ace
He's hot on the track...and off!
Directed by Hal Needham
Produced by Universal Pictures, Warner Bros. Pictures
A lighthearted, high-energy comedy about a cocky NASCAR driver rebelling against corporate control while pursuing romantic conquest.
Stroker Ace, a champion NASCAR driver, is standing at the top of his career, but is getting fed up with having to do as he's told. In between rebelling against his sponsor (a fried chicken chain)'s promotion gimmicks (like making him dress up in giant chicken suit) he spends the rest of the movie trying to bed the buxom Pembrook.
