Summary: dont waste your money
Review: This was the most boring DVD I own. Dont be fooled by the title and other reviews. If you want a DVD to show your system off DONT get this. Unless you want to spend the money for a 5 second clip of a cockpit shot. This DVD is filled with way to much fluff an not enough racing. If you want to see how a car body is carved and an engine is put toghether and even watch Mario Andretti walk around his yard with his pig. (yes pig.) by all means go ahead. Not worth the money for me.

Rating: 5 stars

Review: Equipment Used: Toshiba TW56X81 HDTV; Toshiba SD-5109 Progressive DVD Player; Sony TA-E9000ES Dolby Digital Decoder; Aragon Power Amplifiers; Mirage Speakers;

Super Speedway When Watched and Heard using Above Equipment:

Picture: To Die For; Can Count Gravel stones on Track; 3D feel;

Audio: Least Expensive way to get a drivers feel of being in NASCAR or Indy;

Recommendation: Sell your family if you cant afford to buy it. Just joking. Wife loved it. 4 yr old son wont let me have the center seat on the couch anymore :(

Summary: ok
Review: I dont really know what to say about this movie. The carictors where good and this movie is good for a rainy day.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Super Speedway is SUPER!
Review: This is the best - I viewed it in a surround sound setting on a 64" letter-box HDTV - I got emotional watching this film - you must own this if you enjoy anything about racing period!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great look at modern ChampCar racing
Review: Ride in a 225mph ChampCar with Mario Andretti and follow his son Michael Andretti through the 1996 season. Wonderful filmwork and outstanding THX audio give you a great impression of the speed and excitment of these powerful, agile cars. The Making Of Super Speedway is a great addition to the film. Interactive chapter selections allow you to go to the movie or the making of documentary.

Great for any autoracing fan. Be sure to turn up the sound!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Super Speedway
Review: If you have a widescreen TV and 5.1 sound, treat yourself and purchase Super Speedway. It is fantastic! The story of Mario and Michael Andretti is very interesting and the visuals on the track are astounding. (better if you have progressive DVD) Be prepared for a sound track that will release enough energy to make your neighbors think you installed your own PPG CART series right in the back yard!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Don't get this if you have dogs or live in an Apartment
Review: I cranked my DD 5.1 system all the way up, sat in my driving seat (couch) and strapped in for a great sonic, visual experience. Unfortunately, when I finished, my dogs were shivering and whining in the next room.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A race fan's perspective...
Review: I have been an avid race fan for years, and this spectacular video brings together many aspects of the sport which are not apparent to even devoted followers like me. I found the audio and picture to be stellar, and they combine in a well designed and directed video to provide an exciting, immersive experience (there are many scenes that place you in the cockpit at extreme speeds - they're worth the price of the video alone). The other reviewer's are right - this is the best DVD to showcase a high-end home theater I've ever seen.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An insight into indy car
Review: When you first look at the case two words stare at you Imax and THX, This film was originaly made for the Imax theatre, the dvd version is just as good, the image is awe-inspiring, every single detail jumps from the screen, and the THX sound is remarkable, this is an audio experience which will send your pulse racing, Both these elements put together in one film does not happen very often, but when it does it's an experience you will never forget. If you want to enjoy the thrills of driving an indy-car, or want to find out how an indy-car is made from start to finish, then do not hesitate go and buy one of the best documentarys ever made. You also get the making of super speedway which puts you behind the camera and shows just how much work and money has gone into making this film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Holy Jeeze
Review: I saw this DVD at Home Theater Show on a $300,000.00 Krell/Wilson setup with the new $25,000 Krell Subwoofer and I soiled my pants. This was by far the best looking and sounding DVD I have ever seen. It will look great on any system though. I must have for people who want to see what their system is capable of.
