Dare To Dream: The Alan Kulwicki Story (PG-13)

synopsis

In 1986 a young man from Wisconsin sold everything he owned, packed up a borrowed pickup truck and headed south to start his racing career. He didn't have the big money of the major race teams; he didn't even have a car when he arrived in Charlotte, but he had faith in his abilities and the determination to find a way. He fought hardship throughout his career -- losing sponsors, scraping by on shoestring budgets, replacing entire crews over and over again. Through it all he gained the respect of his peers and the fans. In 1992, with a new sponsor and a team he believed would go to the wall for him, he chased the dream and won the closest points race in the history of NASCAR. Then, just months after his championship, he was lost to us forever.
