Probably a good documentary somewhere about it, more so than a film.
Six Pack
Speedway
Greased Lightning
Stroker Ace
The Last American Hero
Are decent old racing movies though

I was hoping that there was a movie, well cast, with the premise of:
A handful of bootleggers who’ve suped up their cars to outrun the law during prohibition and decided to race/bet/make money outside of the moonshining business. And then how it is developed and grows into a more official/unofficial “underground racing league” and maybe one family of bootleggers makes a sick fast car that changes everything.
Maybe in the “dramedy” genre? Some comic relief to add levity but loosely based on the historical start of American racing?
