Speedway Junky is a 1999 American crime drama film written and directed by Nickolas Perry and starring Jesse Bradford, Jordan Brower, Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Daryl Hannah.
The film stars Jesse Bradford as Johnny, a young man with dreams of becoming a stock car racer.
He meets Eric (Jordan Brower), a gay hustler, who finds himself falling for Johnny.
Other than Veronica, the only thing Eric has to remind him of his mother is a silver dollar she gave him that he carries for good luck.
Steve then asks Johnny to join him in entertaining some gay clients for a potentially large payment.
Steve refuses to return the cash and the drugs, so Eric heads to Veronica's place.
At the bus station, Johnny puts the dollar in a slot machine and hits a jackpot.
