Two-lane Blacktop

  Narrow-minded car freaks drive a Chevy. They cruise around the south-west of the USA, get money from illegal dragster races and use this money for tuning their car. On their way, they meet a girl, take her with them, but are not interested in speaking to her. They meet a guy with a GTO and start a race across America.
The coolest film, ever!!
