It's a heart-warming, truthful glimpse into stock car racing's early years that leaves you wanting more." "Heaven On Wheels is absolutely delightful. I haven't laughed that much in quite a while. What a talented group of actors and musicians you have assembled. You should be playing to sold-out houses. It's so authentic." “Heaven on Wheels touched me deeply with its poignant humor and authenticity. I laughed and I cried as I felt transported in time and emotions to a precious period of life with my Dad, NASCAR stockcar driver and entrepreneur, Curtis Turner. Actor Kyle Courter portrays the character of Curtis Turner with an uncanny familiar resemblance of his mannerisms, southern charm and drawl. The music is great and the entire cast is very creative and talented. I highly recommend Heaven on Wheels to all for a fun time and an authentic inner look into the flavor of the early days of NASCAR and the pioneers of stockcar racing!” -"I was amazed, amused and thoroughly entertained by Heaven On Wheels.
