Aw, sh*t, Wes.

Sorry, man.

Aw, that's okay, Stoner.

We'll manage.

Wonder what the hell

went on in there.

[Radio:
Controller, indistinct]

I have a vision

of Miss FastCo in leather.

Western flavor-

Boots, buckskin.

You'd look great.

You'll sell a lot of cans of FastCo.

I dont really know

what I'm supposed to do, Phil.

Just stand around

and look gorgeous.

[Candy]

Hey, is that the guys down there?

Hey, let's go down and buzz em.

Want me to lose my license?

That's illegal.

Besides,

we dont wanna rub it in.

What do you mean?

They crawl, we fly.

Course, that's the way

it's supposed to be,

but sometimes the hired help

dont like to be reminded.

Yeah? What about me?

Oh, I think

you might be special.

You know,

there's a nice motel in Helena.

it's got a heated pool, sauna,

the works.

Great.

Just make sure you book two rooms.

[Radio:
Controller]

Victor-8-Foxtrot-Victor,

# Rev it up #

# Your heartbeat's

# Engines bursting fire #

# No wonder you cant sleep #

# Drivin quarter-miles #

# Were livin our life

# Ooh, the fever's racin #

# Racing right through your heart ##

[Engine Revving]

[P. A. Announcer]

Okay, you too can be a drag racer!

Rocket racing is handicap racing,

and that means that your wheels can compete.

So dont just watch.

Get in on the action

and run what ya brung!

Where'd you get that from?

[P.A. Announcer]

Right now I'm asking you

to remember...

that tonight, right after

the final top eliminator round,

for those of you who dig boogeyin

and boppin and finger-poppin,

theres gonna be dancing

right out there on the track to the music

of the Big Sky Full Tilt Boogie Band!

Now approaching the Christmas tree

we have a Pontiac G.T.O.

looking hot and dirty in the right lane.

And in the left lane we got a mild Mopar

lookin cool and clean.

- [Engines Revving]

- There go the lights! There goes the G.T.O.!

[P. A. Announcer]

Uh-oh.

Well, folks, you cant win em all.

Its been a bad day

for Mopars all around.

Lets have a hand

for our friend in the Plymouth.

Remember, fans,

that could happen to you.

Better luck next time!

All right, it's the Big Sky drag race!

Fabulous, fantastic and terrific!

Dont go away, fans,

'cause there's lots more comin right at ya!

Mr. Slezak.

Nice turnout you got here today.

So-so.

I expected to see you

flying in this morning.

I landed at the municipal airport.

I got some business in town, so I drove in.

David Paul Cronenberg, CC OOnt FRSC (born March 15, 1943) is a Canadian filmmaker, actor and author.
