Red Line 7000 Page #3

Pat, that front end is

pushing pretty bad.

Kato and I were going to just

Jack the weight around a little bit.

- Oh, really?

- Real bad.

Push him right up to the wall.

Well, why didn't somebody tell me?

Go on, Kate.

Are you gonna let him

take it like that?

I thought you wanted to

find out how good he was?

What about my car?

Your new one will be done soon.

Why don't you give him

one that's set up right?

Look kitten, if he's as good as

he thinks he is, he'll be ok.

If he isn't...

Well, if he isn't, he can find other work.

Like fixing the wall.

You've got lots of time. Remember that.

Pat, why don't you give him a chance?

Oh, c'mon, Julie, cut it out.

You're acting like a female.

What do you think I am, your brother?

Ok.

Fire it up. Take it easy for a lap.

How many spins he make?

Three, but he ended up

going the right way.

Alright, let's see if he

can do better this time.

Only one spin this time.

The guys doing better.

I think he'll make it this time.

You'd better hire him.

Better bring him in

before he breaks his neck.

Kato, wave him in.

Well...

How'd you like it?

- This your car'?

- Yeah, it's mine.

Can you drive it

set up the way it is?

In a straight line.

- Huh?

- In a straight line.

I thought so.

And you give it to me.

You trying to make me

look like a squirrel?

Well, any half way decent chauffeur

can look pretty good

in a car that's set up right.

If it isn't, takes a lot of talent

to keep from hanging it on the wall.

You say you're from darlington?

Want to go back there next

week and drive for us?

Yeah. I'd like to.

Alright, you got yourself a ride

if you can qualify.

Now, what was she doing?

She was pushing pretty bad.

You heard him, kato. She

was pushing pretty bad.

- C'mon, let's look at it.

- Yes, sir.

Well, to start with, take two turns

off the right front.

Well, you got your job.

How come?

You're pretty good out there.

No, I mean how come you put in for me

with your brother?

I don't know.

Well, I didn't expect that. Thank you.

- I owe you for it.

- You don't owe me anything.

Well, the least I could

do is buy you dinner.

I'd like to do that.

I told you, you don't owe me a thing.

There you go now talking

like a boy again.

Have you got a date tonight?

No.

Are you at the motel?

Yeah.

I'll pick you up

around 7:
00.

Ok.

Yes, Mr. Baldwin, a table for

four for 8:
30. Yes. Thank you.

- Hi, Julie.

- Hi.

- You have a table for two?

- Sure, come on.

Hey, pat. Look.

You know I don't think I've never

seen Julie come in here alone with a man.

- No.

- It's about time. She's growing up.

Yeah, it started about 10:30

this morning when he showed up.

Who is he?

His name is arp. Ned arp.

Do I have to tell you what he does?

Is he good?

Well, he better be. He's driving for us

at darlington.

Are you two drinking up all the profits?

Hey, pat, meet my new partner.

- You're putting me on.

- No, I've bought in.

And, it's all because of you, Patrick.

You introduced us.

I see, and if it goes, I'm a champ.

If it doesn't, I'm a chump. Right?

Oh, it'll go, and when it

does we'll buy you a drink.

Well, you want to start practicing.

- Yeah, I guess.

- Hey, we've got plans.

I always wanted that place next door.

Couldn't afford it.

So, we're going to knock out that wall,

put in new tables, records,

and, um, Saturday night live music.

The works, huh?

Yeah, well, I can remember when this

place was just a joint.

It'll still be a joint,

only bigger.

It's scary.

It's so big and...

Quiet.

Empty-

and tomorrow there will be

thousands and thousands of people.

And all that noise.

Ned.

- Ned?

- Yeah?

What are you thinking about?

You're thinking about

the race, aren't you?

Does winning mean

that much to you?

You talk an awful lot.

You still trying

to prove you're a girl?

No, I mean...

That's all you

really care about.

Winning.

You know what

my dad does all day?

He walks behind the plow all day

with my granddaddy

behind him planting seed.

Two or three cousins,

a couple of uncles...

The whole damn family's there,

and they haven't got

a nickel between them.

And I'm not going back to that.

If I win some races,

i get some money,

and I plan to win a few races.

- Let's go.

- Ned?

I don't want you to

go on thinking I'm a boy.

- Darling.

- Hmm?

- Ned?

- Hmm?

Tell me about the other girls.

Tell you what

about the other girls?

What are they like?

- What are they like?

- Don't look at me

Julie, what?

Just tell me.

Don't say anything,

just tell you'?

Want me to use sign language?

Tell you what?

Other girls, what are they like?

What do you mean,

what are they like?

They're like girls.

Blonde...

Brunette...

Redhead.

Tall, short.

- Sexy, not sexy.

- That's what I mean.

Sexy and not sexy.

Well, some are and some aren't

- depends.

- On what?

I don't know.

How can you tell?

If a girl's sexy or not?

Well, sometimes you can't.

Sometimes, uh...

You know.

You have to do

a little research, that's all.

I guess you've done

a lot of research.

Well, where I come from, at sundown

you either watch television...

That's what I want to know.

What?

Tell me about how you can tell

if a girl is sexy or not.

What do you want me

to tell you about?

I just want to know

if I'm... sexy.

Don't laugh at me.

Just tell me...

Am I sexy?

Oh, honey.

I don't want you

to want anyone else.

I just want you to want me.

And as we enter the 119th lap of the

rebel 300 the terrific pace continues.

There's still 99 laps to go,

but the untold story today

how many of these cars and drivers

can stand the strain

of 132 more miles

of racing at these speeds?

Pat kazarian's new driver, ned

arp, is beginning to move up now in car 27

and has just passed car 45.

Now he's passing two more cars,

moving into third spot

and drafting the leaders.

This is arp's track.

He knows every groove,

and for the first time...

He's trying too hard.

He's going to lose it.

He wants to finish early.

Slow him down.

G.C. Spencer's fifth,

and buck Baker's holding

sixth position.

Ned arp is starting to drop back.

Yes, he's leaving the fight to the lead

to Richard petty and Mike marsh.

Petty's in the lead,

but marsh is just

a few car lengths behind.

And there goes marsh!

He's closing the gap.

Now he's almost wheel-to-wheel with

petty as they lap the slower car.

What a battle!

Marsh has tried

the inside, outside

in a desperate bid for the lead.

Petty's managed

to fight off each bid

and hangs on

to the number one spot.

Look at them go!

Both drivers flat-out now

in these closing laps

of the darlington rebel 300.

Look out.

Somebody's in trouble.

Car 47 is losing it.

It's Jack Smith.

He's up against the guard rail.

He's still sliding,

now toward the infield.

That was a close one.

The track is clear now,

and the green flag is out.

Uh-oh, there's another one.

Car 81 is losing it.

He's hitting the rail.

More cars are piling in.
