Buckle your seatbelt for the Trans-America Grand Prox, the infamous cross-country road race from Los Angeles to New York City. David Carradine stars as Coy "Cannonball" Buckman, an ex-com and fallen stock car champ who puts pedal to the metal for one last shot at glory. Howver competition on the open road is a killer...and Cannonball is the target! Veronica Hamel, Bill McKinney, Gerrit Graham, Mary Woronov, Robert Carradine, and Dick Miller also star with cameos by director Paul Bartel, co-writer Don Simpson, Sylvester Stalone, Martin Scorsese, Roger Corman, Joe Dante, Judy Canova, and more. Extras include interviews with David Carradine, Woronov, and Corman, traile Non-stop action ensues when a variety of offbeat characters compete in a no-holds-barred, cross-country race from Los Angeles to New York.
Up for grabs in the Trans-American Grand Prix is $100,000... and some of the determined drivers will do anything to collect the dough.
Among the participants are veteran racer "Cannonball" Buckman and the villainous Cade Redman. Although Redman manages to beat up Buckman and knock him off the road more than once, the tough "Cannonball" won't be intimidated. No matter how much damage his car (and his body) sustains, Buckman just gets right back into the race. Meanwhile, he also finds time to romance Linda, another participant in the contest.
Who will be the first one to cross the finish line... and what condition will he or she and their automobile be in? High energy action film about an illegal & lengthy marathon road race where the goal is to make it to the finish without being arrested or incinerated. Look for cameos from cult directors Martin Scorcese and Roger Corman. The film was rumored to be the most expensive film New World Pictures had made up to that point.
Additional credits: Cathy McCabe (assistant director).

Mutrux's crude cult classic answer to AMERICAN GRAFITTI and ANIMAL HOUSE follows the comic exploits of the Hollywood Knights, a rowdy, prank-happy car club, and their screwball leader Newbomb Turk (Wuhl). When a group of Beverly Hills preppies decide to run the déclassé pranksters out of town by closing down their hang-out--Tubby's Drive-in--the 'Knights (featuring a young Danza and Pfeiffer) unleash a chaotic string of practical jokes in retaliation, culminating in a hell-raising Halloween free-for-all. Long enjoying cable TV-fed cult status, the film's video release was held up for years due to music rights.
