Bronx Princess POV Community Engagement & Education Discussion GuiDe Racing Dreams A Film by Marshall Curry www.pbs.org/pov PoV LetteR fRom the fiLmmakeR Brooklyn , n ew york , 2011 Before i started making this film, i didn’t really know anything about car racing, and i’m sorry to say, ignorance about racing is pretty typical in new york, where i live. But i knew it wasn‘t typical for the country as a whole. nAscAr is reportedly the second biggest spectator sport in America after football - bigger than baseball or basketball. And i have a lot of family in north carolina, so i knew how much passion for the sport there is down there. i began to wonder how it was possible that in a city like new york, where we’re exposed to such an amazing variety of cul - tures, so many people could know so little about America’s second-favorite pastime. it seemed like something i should learn about if i wanted to understand the red-state/blue-state divide (or, more accurately, the new york/rest-of-the-country di - vide) and so i wrote down “nAscAr” and dropped it into the file i keep of documentary ideas. soon afterward, i read an article about extreme go-kart racing—a nationally competitive sport in which 11 and 12 year olds drive karts that go 70 mph(!). it’s widely considered the little league for nAscAr, and a lot of the top professional drivers started out that way in doing it. i thought that sounded pretty amazing, and one of the things i love about making docu - mentaries is it lets me spend a year or two learning about things i don’t know about. so i went to a few races to scout it out, and it was better than i had imagined. The racing was noisy and dangerous, and the kids were smart, funny and dazzlingly charismatic. i put aside the project i had been working on and dove in. i found two boys and a girl — Josh, Brandon and Annabeth — who were great racers with magnetic personalities. They were at that perfect age where they were old enough to be interesting and insightful, but young enough to be open and unrehearsed. They began to teach me about their passion for racing. To them, racing is just a part of the larger story of growing up. The three-day world karting Association events are where you fall in love for the first time. races are where you test your inner strength and figure out who you are. And races are where you bond with — and declare independence from — your parents. Annabeth told me, “when you are 11 or 12, everyone is always telling you what to do. But when you are racing, you can’t hear anyone else. should i pass this guy? should i wait a lap? it’s all up to you.” we have joked that racing is the McGuffin in our film, and that in some ways, Racing Dreams is actually a coming-of-age story disguised as a racing movie. i think that pre-adolescence is probably the most important, poignant and under-explored stage in our lives. it’s really when we are beginning to figure out who we are, how we relate to our parents, what romance feels like, and what we want to do. i hope that this movie will take people back to that age, and remind us of the dreams we had - to be President, or a baseball player, or wherever our imagination took us. Back before we knew about the importance of money or connections or how hard things were going to be, and we just dreamed.

IN c I N Bowling Green, Kentucky, founded in 1798, is a beautiful Southern city nestled adjacent to the Barren River and set amid the undulating foothills of south~central Kentucky. Long before Bowling Green was known as the home of Western Kentucky University, the General Motors Corvette assembly plant, the National Corvette Museum, and the birthplace of Duncan Hines of cake mix fame, the town forged a progressive but not aggressive attempt to become a community of consequence. The Civil War hampered this progress, but the march quickened after the difficult years of Reconstruction. Transportation was always an important component of this growth. Over the years, Bowling Green enjoyed access to good roads, river traffic via steamboats and barges, rail service on the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, and, by the late 1930s, a developing airport. This transportation infrastructure placed Bowling Green on solid footing to benefit from the economic boom after World War II.

This is especially evident in recent years. The 1996 “split” between the Indy Racing League (IRL; later, the IndyCar Series) and Championship Auto Racing Teams (CART; later the Champ Car World Series) severely hurt the sport. Following the split there was a well-documented decline in fan interest from which the sport has not recovered. Less understood, however, is that under the Indy Racing League the Indianapolis 500, the premier event in open-wheeled racing in the United States, became more competitive. Ironically, while fan interest decreased in the Indy Racing League era, the quality of racing increased. The increased competition associated with the Indy Racing League is a historically significant development that bodes well for the future of the sport.
