Mind Over Motor (1923)

Race promoter Ellis (Larry Steers) induces Tish (Trixie Friganza), an "automaniac," to innocently finance a motor race. Jasper McCutcheon (Ralph Graves), Tish's friend, is about to win the race when Ellis' paid cohorts force him out. Informed by the sheriff that she will be jailed for conspiracy unless an outsider wins the race, Tish jumps into a car and drives to victory.
