A famous motor-racing champion returns to his hometown to compete in a local race.
Some good racing scenes and Cagney's charisma hardly save this otherwise a bit unexciting story.
You can find a good longer review with more photos at Only the Cinema.

Thanks for the link. This is definitely pretty weak for early Hawks, among his worst few films. There's some good racing footage and a few good dramatic moments here and there -- mostly the camaraderie between Ann Dvorak and Joan Blondell as the girlfriends -- but on the whole it's a rushed, silly mess.
