synopsis
A classic story of son following in Father's footsteps, this movie portrays a young racecar driver who is trying to emulate his Father - despite the fact that his Father was killed on the track. Played by Mickey Rooney, the young man is a hot-dogger and nearly precipitates a tragedy in his effort to "measure up." Good acting and directing keep story from becoming hackneyed.
