Great job

This movie was partly filmed in my Hometown of Beverly mass. I also am involved in Motor cycle sales especially Japanese sport bikes. I was able to get a close up look at how a area of my city (Beverly Farms) was converted into the fictional city the actors were from. They closed off large portions of Route 127, a winding country road to film Sport bikes reaching speeds of over 100 miles per hour. It took me a few years to find the finished product as 1989-1992 was still the dark ages of little internet. I enjoyed the film and have watched it several times. As my father gave his life to race Super Modified cars I like how the actors portrayed being poor and taking on the Rich Factory Team and them soldering on with little $ but a big dream to fulfill their ambitions..

Two Privateers attempt to compete in Grand Prix Motor Cycle racing

Race For Glory is an accurate attempt to depict the real racing world for privateers. These two young guys try to break into the Grand Prix Circuit with their own bike. It's a sort of "Rocky on Wheels" Story. The texture and production value of the film is quite amazing for the budget which reportedly was a bit over $8 million. The production company actually sponsored two real racers who ended up as #17 and 22 on the circuit for the year. Shot on location in France, Belgium, Yugoslavia and Boston. Peter Berg's first feature and he steels the show from Alex MacArthur. No wonder his career took off after this film. The racing scenes are quite amazing and justifiably so 10 cameras going throughout the Grans Prix's and world renowned and Oscar nominated Cinematographer, Jack N. Green.

Not a bad movie.

The person that described this as Rocky on Wheels is pretty accurate. I don't know why anyone would hate this movie so much. No, it is not the Godfather or Star Wars, but the movie is fun to watch if you are a GP fan (even if it is not the most realistic story in the world). It does not bother me that they build a bike in their garage and take it 500cc racing. I know that is impossible, but it is just a movie, it is not a documentary or a biography on a racer. If you like bike racing I say you should definitely see this movie. I give it a 5/10 for non bike racing fans and a 7/10 for bike racing fans.

For it's time it was a good movie

When I had first seen this movie in 1989 I thought it was a really good Gp race movie. I had the heart of the all american race dream taking on the big boys and beating them at their own game. I must say it is one movie that connected with me when I was in high school dreaming of racing Gp bikes.

Thinly veiled account of American jingoism in motorcycle racing.

Is it just me or the fact that the evil racing team is Japanese and that their arrogant star racer is German seem a little over the top? Maybe that is how it is on the international racing circuit but if all America had representing them are chumps like Cody and his mechanic Chris (Peter Berg, who must have been still learning how to act) then I would be rooting for another country. Formula movies can be good but the characters have to be likeable and no one meets that criteria in this movie. To put it succinctly - a very bad movie.
