**SPOILERS** When an episode starts out with TWO hot brunettes, It's got my attention. When they both drive beautiful cars, that's whipped cream and a cherry on top. Such as a 1961 Buick Invicta convertible, and a 1961 Chevy Impala bubbletop. Naturally, both of them were being used by an Italian race driver/dirtbag who wanted one of them to help him commit murder. That's just great. What's even better is when it turns out that he's upstaged, and completely outdone by somebody even dirtier and more rotten Someone who uses his sister through deceit and manipulation to get what he wants. I mean, this guy is classically pathological. He's not nuts, but he should be. His next address: Death Row, San Quentin. Not that anyone is cheated by the delightful death of the first rat, just one dirtbag out-dirtbagging another dirtbag.
Now, I've complained before about letting old farts pick out the music that teenagers are supposed to listen to (DON'T DO IT !), now, they should've done the same thing with Sports Car/Track Racers. I suppose someone read something somewhere about the potential of the Rotary Engine, and thought it was a good idea to run the theory around the block.
The defendant was exactly right. Caution; and it paid off, big time. The rotary engine was not a viable race engine. The big contest at the time was between Meter-Drake Offenhauser engines, and several types of V-8s. In 1965, Ford brought out an engine that completely swept the Indy type racing field. That was the type of car being wrecked by Mr. Italian Fast Driver. It was the Meyer-Drake car that they used in this episode.
What I liked was murderous loverboy getting clipped, and the guy confessing and bragging about how and why he did it. In this case, I'll let a happy ending slip by without saying how they normally.. okay I'll stop there.
