Hawai’i 78 in Race the Sun

IZ’s music has been heard in movies, too! “Hawai’i 78” was featured in the 1996 film Race the Sun. It was based on the 1990 solar race car team from Konawaena High School that went to the World Championship that year. IZ loved having his song in this movie as it was about kids from Hawai’i, and he loved kids.
