• TV Producer : [approaching a silver Corvette]  Now here is an interesting entry. You kids look more like, uh, surfers, than you do racing drivers.

  Jim Crandell : Well, surfing is bad this year.

  TV Producer : Well, tell me, have you raced this, uh, uh...

  Jim Crandell : Corvette.

  TV Producer : ...corvette in any other race?

  Jim Crandell : Uh, no.

  Maryann : You see, it isn't exactly our car. Daddy, if you've been watching this, uh, everything's okay, we'll be bringing the car back in about a week.

  TV Producer : Tell me something. Uh, uh, uh, anyway, I sure wish you luck, and I'll bet that hundred thousand will buy you a lot of surfboards.

  Jim Crandell : If we win, we're gonna buy ourselves a house on the beach.

  Maryann : In Hawaii.

  TV Producer : [to the camera]  Aren't they darling?

• Desert Gas Station Attendant : [Jim and Maryann pull into a desert gas station]  Hello. What can I do for you?

  Jim Crandell : I need a new fan belt, because this one's about shot.

  Desert Gas Station Attendant : Oh, I'm sorry, mister. I don't carry anything like that. You'll have to go to an auto supply place.

  Jim Crandell : Well... couldn't I have a piece of tape to hold it together 'til we get there?

  Maryann , Desert Gas Station Attendant : Well, sure, I can give you some tape. I don't know how long it'll hold, though.

  Maryann : Where's the nearest place where we can get a fan belt?

  Desert Gas Station Attendant : Mmm... about two-hundred miles.
