I knew that they'd know about the milieu and that they'd teach me. Those guys know the film's characters. Stroker is a composite."

A ladies' man, Stroker tries to seduce the beautiful
Pembrook, who is a Sunday School teacher, does not drink, and is a virgin. She spurns all of his advances until he learns to respect her views. One night, after getting her drunk on champagne, he removes her clothing and has a chance to rape her,

During the race
Stroker is at odds with himself. He drops back in the race in an effort to lose, but his ego won't let him so he quickly begins moving back through the pack. After a jack malfunction drops Stroker to 6th with time running out. Torkle, thinking that Stroker has no chance to win and

Stroker is winning races under the
Chicken Pit sponsorship and is in the running for the season-ending championship. At the beginning of the final race, Torkle is offered a deal to sell his franchise for a huge profit, on the condition that he drops Stroker Ace as his driver. Torkle tells Stroker

described
Reynolds as "ambling through the movie as though it were a colossal in-joke, which, of course, it must be, since it isn't perceptibly funny to anyone outside Reynolds and Needham's immediate circle." Gary Arnold was somewhat more positive, calling it "a knuckleheaded but amiable summer

Overlooking his contract by not reading its specifics, Stroker begins a new life as the commercial face for the
Chicken Pit fast-food restaurants. (The slogan on Stroker's car reads: "The Fastest Chicken in the South.") His contract proves to stipulate that he must do personal appearances, which

When
Stroker runs afoul of his current sponsor, Jim Catty of Zenon Oil, by dumping a load of wet concrete on him, he has to find a new one. Fried-chicken mogul Clyde Torkle, along with his chauffeur, Arnold, and newly appointed director of marketing and public relations, Pembrook Feeny, convince

With the news that he is free from the contract, Stroker wins the championship in spectacular fashion by flipping his car over as he crosses the finish line. Torkle then finds that the lucrative offer for his chicken franchise is a fake, cooked up by
Stroker and his friends.
358:. An all-or-nothing man, he wins if he does not crash. He is arrogant and pompous, with no regard for the business side of his racing team. He also has an on-track, season-long rivalry with ambitious young driver Aubrey James, who drives the #10 Four-Star Whiskey

Realizing that he is locked into a bad deal, Stroker devises a plan with Lugs to get out of it. Torkle is on to

Wood said: "For the past five years, Burt has been No. 1 at the box office, and during that period, there has seldom been a good review of anything he's done." However the film was a major commercial disappointment.
