Viva Las Vegas.

Elvis' rival was Elmo Mancini. 

Ann Margaret described a problem with her TR3... said "it whistles". Elvis
or Elmo said "Can ya blame it?"

A Thicko... Chuck Maranto owns the Elvis Elva that appeared in the movie.

There's a Healey 100-4 that goes airborne and broadsides a telephone pole.

Many other famous race cars of day, like Ol' Yeller, etc. are in the movie.

Worth owning for the car footage and Ann Margaret's ass. 

;)

I remember that vapid movie.  Out in the desert with a huge mix of
cars.
Don't remember the name of the picture but there were the mandatory
crashes
and the boufant blonde.  Deternined men. Terrible driving.
The dialog was even worse.
