The BMX Classic RAD Available on Extras-Loaded Steelbook Blu-ray March 16th

The 1984 BMX Classic RAD wil be available on an extras-loaded Steelbook Blu-ray March 16th from Mill Creek Entertainment.

Cru Jones (Bill Allen) is the best BMX biker in Cochrane. He’s got the talent to become the best BMX daredevil in the world. Bart Taylor (Bart Conner) is the best BMX biker in the world, and he’s in town to race in the $100,000 Helltrack competition, the most grueling BMX race in history. Cru wants a shot at winning the title, but his mom (Talia Shire) insists he take his college entrance exams which fall on the same day.  He decides to go for Helltrack, but the race promoter (Jack Weston) has a dirty scheme for keeping the local whiz kid out of the race and away from his prized champion. Only the gorgeous Christian (Lori Loughlin), a member of the opposite team, can get Cru on track for Helltrack! And teach him a few other things while she’s at it!

Special Features include: “Rad” Q&A Session featuring cast members Bill Allen, Talia Shire, Bart Conner, screenwriter Sam Bernard, and hosted by Jorma Taccone, Archival video interviews with cast and crew, Original Behind-the-Scenes Featurette and “Break the Ice” music video.
