Yup! OUR generation saw it way back when. I think it came out in the early 70's. Have you seen the famous BULLIT car chase? How about Vanishing Point and Le Mans? I just heard about these movies though. Yeah yeah!

While Grand Prix is a very good movie (albeit dated), I still feel Le Mans is the quintessential racing movie. Stallone's Driven was a disaster. And, I've heard that there are plans to re-make Le Mans, which I couldn't disagree with more. However, Hollywood needs to keep the engines humming.
I can watch Le Mans over and over and NEVER get tired of it.
