“Eat My Dust“ (1976) was a low-budget action-comedy produced by Roger Corman starring Ron Howard as Hoover Niebold, a teen who steals a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS race car to impress a girl - while a motorized posse let by his sheriff father gives chase. Corman required Howard to star in this film as a condition before letting him direct a future feature. The movie features real practical stunts on paved roads, dirt tracks, and off-road terrain, including cars crashing, rolling down hills, smashing through buildings, and causing general muscle-car mayhem.
