Cowritten by future Avengers mainstay Brian Clemens, the British-filmed Crash Drive plays like an American Pat O'Brien programmer of the 1930s. Dermot Walsh stars as a race car driver who is paralyzed in an accident. Rather than accept the situation, he immerses himself in the mire of self-pity. Only the return of estranged wife Wendy Williams snaps Walsh out of his weeping and wailing. Just as Wendy Williams is not rock star Wendy O. Williams, neither is Crash Drive supporting actor Ian Fleming the same person as the novelist.
