Mostly because the in-car footage of James Garner was really him driving. Can you imagine a Hollywood actor doing that today?

Rocky
Hmmm Breaking away (count?), Raging Bull, Rocky, Big Wednesday, Belleville Rendezvous (count?)
Being an NHL fan...
Slapshot!

Also, American Flyers.
And Tin cup.
Kevin Costner does good work.
I always had a soft spot for Victory, starring Pele. But we have seen a few with the kids, recently, and really enjoyed them.

I did but not as much as Slapshot. There's a wealth of films to be made about NHL players!
Forgot about Cool Runnings, totally brilliant film.
Slapshot +1
I am listening to the freaking song 😆 Hanson Brothers 😆

Or Seven Sunny Days for sport documentary type.
Victory? Bloody Americanisms.
Good cheesey film Escape to Victory.
Drac, to give myself the benefit of the doubt, I'm living entirely off memory here. The whole thing is probably shite. I was nine when it came out; I didn't know what shite was.
It's alright but very much of its era.
Dodgeball obvz.
Grand Prix, Le Mans and On Any Sunday though. And I loved Goon
+1 for Dirt, but honourable mention for Happy Gilmore. I would say Le Man, for a fantastic seventies score, luscious looking and sounding 917s and 512s, an ace crash scene and it's got Steve McQueen in. More currently, I really enjoyed MMA bandwagon joiner Warrior - all the fighty stuff but a decent and well-acted story, too.
Can't believe this documentary hasn't been mentioned yet
Dirt or maybe Tread (although some drivel briefly in the middle.
Or, The Flying Scotsman
A Sunday in Hell
On Any Sunday
Forgot about that as well! Long ago before you lot were born in the late 70's, they put that on at the SSDT in Fort William at the 'cinema' down the main street.
Steve McQueen was handy on a bike.
On any Sunday, just for this speech:
White men can't jump.
But what is the link between the film and cycling?
Senna
Chariots of Fire
Caddyshack
Caddy shack.
Is there any other..?

"You people this is Golf.....!"
Happy Gilmore is amazing. Why is Adam Sandler so sh*t in everything else.
Cars, The Damned United, White Men Can't Jump, Fire in Babylon, Karate Kid
Too many... Oh an Fever Pitch 🙂
Fastest and Furiouserer
No mention of howard the duck?
WTF kind of sports film thread is this?
Le Mans
Senna
