Sort of like me.

He's entirely different.

He's actually more like me...

...not crazy at all.

- Thank you.

- Honey?

- Dad.

- Can't I be a little bit crazy?

- Hi, Dad.

- Lucky, this is my father.

- Mr. Martin.

- Rusty's talked a lot about you.

- She has?

- I didn't think she'd mention me.

- I mentioned your losing your money.

Had a good day?

- Great. We...

- We went sightseeing.

- The usual things, you know.

- Yeah, sure.

You kids remember to eat lunch?

You didn't.

Come inside the apartment.

We'll throw something together.

Thanks, but I better

get the copter back.

You kids come in a copter?

Don't they cost 10 dollars a minute?

The guy running the field

is an Air Force buddy.

He still lets me order him around.

Well, I'd like to hear what

you have to say about race driving.

Come to think of it, if I were

younger, I'd take it up myself.

Father!

Take it up with your daughter.

She don't think it's safe.

Well, honey, I'll run along.

I promised old Jake Stiles I'd go bowling.

Father, stop torturing me.

I couldn't eat a thing.

- I never had a better day.

- Me too.

Let's don't let it end.

I'll go change.

- Hello, Rusty.

- Pretty car. I love the color.

Thank you.

- You enjoy racing?

- I don't really know.

- I suppose you're very good.

- Well, I hope I am.

Is Lucky good?

He's the best since Cal Howard.

Cal Howard? Is he the champion?

He would have been,

but he had bad luck.

- What do you mean?

- His car crashed over a wall.

So, as you see, the good thing to do

is to avoid bad luck.

I guess so.

- What are you talking about?

- Rusty was asking...

We were just discussing

cars and drivers.

- Let's go for a ride.

- You got the motor?

You better believe it.

You do?

This way.

Okay, now I'm gonna downshift

and bring her up 5700 revs.

- What does that mean?

- We're going into a turn.

Hey, okay.

Here's my shift point.

Watch me burn up the guy ahead.

- Why?

- Because we gotta win, that's why.

Just a few more hundred of these

and I'll be racing again.

Someday.

Someday you'll get smashed up

just like Cal Howard.

How did you know about that?

Oh, look. He was just unlucky,

that's all.

- It's just one of those things.

- Unlucky. That's what everybody says.

Honey, I just don't understand this

part of you. I really don't.

What do you mean "this part of me"?

It is me.

Try to understand, it is me.

Then you've got to understand me.

When I get married...

...I want a little white house...

...with a tree in the front yard.

A real kind of tree...

...with green leaves...

Oh, that.

When I get the money,

we can have 100 trees...

...a big white house with a four-car
