Does someone remember the name to this 80's teen car movie???

Question

I only remember bits and pieces like it was a high school teen/mechanic with a red car and like something pulling a lot of electricity out of town and he was speeding at the end of the movie (like racing the electricity jumping thru the high-power lines)... like I said I'm not much help here and all I remember is I liked it for some odd reason.. I don't remember the main actor being famous.. I hope any of this was helpful.. thanks bunches for any responses!

Answer 3

My Science Project (1985)

IMDb review:

"My Science Project" is a great '80s sci-fi movie about a teen, Mike Harlan (John Stockwell), who, with classmate Ellie Sawyer (Danielle Zerneck), sneaks into an old Air Force junkyard, stumbles upon an alien device discarded in a 1950s fallout shelter, and tries to turn it in as his science project. When his teacher (Dennis Hopper) finds a way to power the device, he zaps himself into another time dimension and, from there, all h**l breaks loose. Eventually, Mike, best friend Vince Latello (Fisher Stevens), Ellie and school librarian/nerd Sherman (Raphael Sbarge) find themselves battling their way through Roman gladiators, the Viet Cong, post-apocalyptic mutants and even a Tyrannosaurus Rex in each room of their High School as they make their way toward the science hall to deactivate the device and save their town.

Is this what you're asking about?
