I’m trying to find the name of a movie that I saw before 2005. The main character is a truck driver, and there are several trucks involved in a race. The objective of the race is to get to the finish line first, and there is a prize of a million dollars, or something like that for the winners. Along the way, the trucks encounter a damaged oil pipeline and must maintain a certain speed to prevent an explosion. They must also avoid any impact or deceleration that could cause the dangerous cargo they are carrying to explode.
I remember that there were only two trucks left by the end of the race: the main character’s truck and one other. The movie might have a title that describes a bad road or dangerous driving. I’m not sure about the actors or the language, but I do remember that the movie was in color. If you have any idea what movie this might be, please let me know!
Additional information:
- I saw the movie in the early 2000s, but I am not sure when it was released.
- I do not recognize any actors in the movie.
- The movie was in English, but I saw it in Russian voice acting.
- I saw the movie on TV.
- The movie was in color.
- At the finish line, the drivers of the surviving trucks are promised a prize of a million dollars, or something like that.
Might be Thunder Run (1985). If they make it to the end they get a quarter million dollars. But it isn’t really a contest, but there are rival trucks giving them a hard time and I don’t remember a dam.
Thanks for the suggestion, actually I’ve also found it, but that’s not the movie I’m looking for.
“Sorcerer” (1977)?

At first glance, it doesn’t seem to be the right film, but I’ll try to take a closer look at the actual movie since the trailer doesn’t provide much information. Thanks!
Okay, I found the full movie and watched some selected moments. Yes, that’s the one! I spent around ten hours before you helped me find this movie! Thank you so much for your help!
Solved!
Oh wow! That was just a wild guess, but I’m happy that it’s solved and thank you for the confirmation.
Marking “Solved.”
