This 1986 drama stars Bill Allen, Lori Loughlin, Bart Conner, Talia Shire and Jack Weston. This tells the story of Cru Jones (Allen), an ambitious teen who
dreams of becoming a pro BMX bike rider and he wants to enter a race/contest, Helltrack where a bunch of pros compete including local champion, Bart Taylor (Conner). Cru has support from friends, but tries convincing his mom (Shire) who is against the idea because she wants him to go to college. Loughlin (Full House) plays Christian, a girl Cru finds romance with and is also a BMX rider and the late, Weston (Dirty Dancing) plays shrewd businessman, Duke Best who tries to keep Cru from racing. I haven't seen this since I was a kid and just watched it recently. It's a good 80's teen flick with a decent cast, good soundtrack and nice scenery/settings. I recommend this to anyone who remembers growing up in the 80's.
