I've been looking for THE YOUNG RACERS and WILD RACERS for a while and I've yet to see any evidence of a VHS or other release.
Can anyone verify, refute etc.? Thanks!
Neither has ever been out, but THE YOUNG RACERS once ran on Bruce Dern's late, lamented LOST DRIVE-IN series on the Speedvision network.
I'd love to see THE YOUNG RACERS again, mainly out of curiosity. When I saw it it was the "B" feature on a double bill with BEACH PARTY. I've never had the opportunity to see it since. It wasn't particularly memorable to a child of 10 who'd gone there to see Frankie and Annette frolic at the beach, but it didn't bore me. And a few weeks later I saw DEMENTIA 13 on a double bill with THE MAN WITH THE X-RAY EYES and I noticed it had many of the same cast members. Years later, of course, I learned of the connection between the two films--how Coppola was working as a crew member on YOUNG RACERS and convinced Corman to give him a few days in Ireland with some of the cast and crew to shoot his horror script.
Thanks, Tim.
And I had Speedvision at one time, alas.
