It’s the real stuff, photographed at real races, and you go racing with James Garner . . , star of “Grand Prix.” But, this time it’s for real, he owns the cars and takes you behind the scenes at Sebring, Daytona, Limerock, St. Jovite and even some of his off road racing in Baja, Mexico in his Bad Bronco. Some of Jim’s playmates are Parnelli Jones, John Surtees, Roger Penske, Bob Bondurant, Mario Andretti, Sam Posey Scooter Patrick, Pat Fahey, Dick Smothers and hundreds more. You will see the real blood, sweat and tears, like Jim said, “Why couldn’t it be like “Grand Prix”, when you do it for real, it ain’t like the movies!” Producer Barry Scholer and director Andy Sidaris filmed for nine months. John Srevens devised a tiny camera the size of a grapefruit that recorded action that will make your hair Stand on end! Made from 16mm, the film has a few scratches, but this is one you won’t want to miss. James Garner, we can’t thank you enough! |
