Roaring Wheels (2000) 飆車之車神傳說 Director: Aman Chang Starring: Dave Wang, Karen Mok, Maggie Shaw, Moses Chan While there's really not much racing in this film, it is a fair drama with creative direction and some interesting characters. Similar to Full Throttle in many ways, but overall, inferior. In the underground world of motorbike racing, Wong (Wang) and Fung (Chan) are the two top drivers. Wong is number one and Fung is eaten up with jealousy. Fung, furious at always being second-best challenges him to a last race - and against his better judgment Wong goes for it! Disaster ensues - a terrible accident leaving him crippled, coupled with the death of his girlfriend. Three years later, he is a single father, raising his son in the obscurity of a seaside resort. This tranquil existence is intruded upon by Fung besotted with proving himself to be the best and a mystery girl, Suki (Mok), who seems to be in love with Wong. Fung blackmails Wong into another race. Wong now must face his past, his loss of nerve and his future. DVD: List Price: US $26.95
