Grand Prix is back on DVD in wide screen format! The film was originally released in "Super Panavision".

What's your favorite racing movie?

From an ex-racers standpoint, I still like "Le Mans" better for the storyline AND the racing footage, but "Grand Prix" has some great footage from the Monaco GP & others, so you can just enjoy that & ignore the bland plot.
We sat in the 12th row with a thermos of hot Castrol R, so we got the sound, images, & the smells, too! :D

After you get a chance to see this here, I'll move it over to chat where it really belongs.

I have an unopened copy of Lemans on VHS. hahahaha

I figure I'd wait and buy it on DVD too.

It's not back. This movie never was released on DVD until now. Why it took so long, who knows? Great footage though.
