Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDuring an interview, actress Betsy Russell was asked what she thought about the trailer showing her character as a strong female, but then cutting to her in the shower. She said: "I've never really paid attention to that. I guess strong females still have to take showers. They still like to feel sexy, so I don't think there's one thing that should stop someone from feeling sexy and showing their body if that's what they choose to do. I don't think it makes any difference in the world."
- GoofsThe naked man Tommy encounters has tape visible on his lower abdomen, which is apparently being used to cover his genitals.

Tomasina 'Tomboy' Boyd: I prefer to drive myself.

Featured review
Another selection from the Mill Creek 200 drive in cult classics box set.
What can I say about this one. If you like lame comedy weak plot, cheesy soundtracks and ample amount of nudity you will love this.
Tommy is a misunderstood gal. She loves fixing cars being tough and racing. No one respects her for being herself they all want her to be more girly and get laid already.
These movies were a dime a dizen back in the 80's. To friends just having fun and getting in to trouble. There is a race and montages but really not much to say.
Great movie kept my interest and was never boring. Some really good stuff here. If you haven't seen it I would give it a watch.
Definitely a highlight in this box set so far.
