Red Dirt Rising (2011)

Based on a true story, this film shares with us a decade in the lives of Jimmie Lewallen and his wife Carrie as they experience the joys of love and marriage alongside the tragedies of war and poverty (1939-1949). Jimmie and his friends, Bill Blair and Fred Harb, find escape from life's challenges in racing born out of hauling moonshine on warm North Carolina evenings and inadvertently become racing's earliest heroes.
