Red Line 7000 is a 1965 American motion picture released by Paramount Pictures. It was directed by Howard Hawks, who also co-wrote the screenplay. It stars James Caan, Laura Devon and Marianna Hill in a story about young stock-car racers trying to establish themselves and about the complicated romantic relationships in their lives.
George Takei, only a year away from Star Trek, appears in a supporting role. Teri Garr appears uncredited as a go-go dancer in a nightclub.
NASCAR driver Larry Frank helped to film the movie by allowing the film crew to mount cameras on his car. Frank later drove the camera-car in a NASCAR race.
The film features tracks like Daytona International Speedway, Darlington Raceway, and Atlanta Motor Speedway. In this film, it features many crashes from the season, including A.J. Foyt's violent crash at Riverside International Raceway earlier in the year.
The title is from the RPM's an engine could make on a tachometer before crossing the red line beyond the safety margin.
Synopsis
