Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Hard Drivin' is a lively precursor to all those "on the road" flicks of the 1970s. Rory Calhoun, John Gentry and Alan Hale Jr. star as three hellraising Southern stock car drivers. The racing scenes themselves are well photographed, with the stars apparently doing a lot of their own stunts. These sequences are intercut with footage from the real-life Southern 500 competition.
