Movie Recap: Stroker Ace
If you love Smokey and the Bandit, Cannonball Run, WKRP in Cincinnati, Gomer Pyle, and Days of Thunder, this movie might be for you… maybe.
Stroker Ace is like a mashup of every 80s cult favorite — minus the darkness of Deliverance (except for Ned Beatty), and with none of the high-octane realism of Days of Thunder. It’s wildly inappropriate by today’s standards, filled with sexual innuendo, confederate flags, and glorified nonsense — but it still makes us laugh.
When Hal Needham called, Burt Reynolds answered… and created a legendary box office flop that lives on in NASCAR movie history. Why?
Because he was driving the Fastest Chicken in the South.
Directed by:
Hal Needham
Starring:
Burt Reynolds
Ned Beatty
Jim Nabors
Parker Stevenson
Loni Anderson
Released: 7/1/1983
Produced by: Warner Bros AND Universal Pictures

Movie Review: Stroker Ace
In June of 2025 we are doing our Month of Racing! We originally reviewed the Burt Reynolds Classic “Stroker Ace” in Episode 178 in February of 2021. Enjoy!
Movie Recap: If you loved Smokey and the Bandit, Cannonball Run, Police Academy, WKRP, Gomer Pyle: USMC, The Hardy Boys, Elvira: Mistress of the Dark, Deliverance, and Days of Thunder….this is like all of them combined, minus ….basically everything from Deliverance except Ned Beaty, and all of the really good stuff from Days of Thunder like Tom Cruise and amazing cinematography with real in car race footage at speed. This movie would be culture cancelled today. Sexual harassment is considered innocent fun, women are ogled, there’s (ironically) no drug use, and the confederate flags are a plenty. But when Hal Needham called, Burt Reynolds answered…and made a box office flop that has kept us all clucking and chuckling to this day. Why? Because he was driving the FASTEST CHICKEN IN THE SOUTH.
