Speedo

2003, English. Directed by Jesse Moss.

Hailed as “highly enjoyable” (Variety) and “an instant cult classic” (Film Threat), SPEEDO kicks up the dirt surrounding Ed “Speedo” Jager, one of the nation’s top “demo” daredevils. A Long Island garage mechanic by day, the lanky-haired Speedo spends his free time at work, compulsively rebuilding his pieced-together wrecks before each competition: “It’s an addiction,” he says, “like nitro-methane through your veins.” But as a hobby turns into an obsession, Speedo’s marriage of twenty years begins to deteriorate like a junkyard Cadillac, which only fuels his raceway rages. Will a developing crush on a female track official finally bring peace to this hell on wheels? - Docurama Films
