Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Only Thing Better Would be a Real CART Car Ride
Review: Get the full blown version of this DVD. The video is incredible and the Dolby Digital Soundtrack is unbelievable! This is a must have DVD for 5.1 digital systems. I just wish I had seen it at the local IMAX theatre.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome, but this is only the making of. Need full version
Review: The full Superspeedway DVD is Incredible. Unfortunately, this is only the making of DVD. You need to get the full version, ~35.00 USD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Real life thrill
Review: Being a race-car mechanic myself it shows as much as it can being true and real. It was wonderfully done and excelent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent documetary on indy car racing
Review: Missed it at the IMAX so had to get it. The sound is incredible. Sounds like you are right there at the track. Only watched it in dolby digital. The picture is also top notch. Unfortuntaly I don't have the Imax screen at home so you don't get the full effect of sitting in the car. The bigger the TV you got the better though.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great for auto race fans, outstanding soundtrack
Review: An amazing production with speed and camera size and wight. Race fans get a first hand look and feel of the real CART experience. Highly recommend

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must for any CART fan!
Review: This is a very engaging film, narrated by the great Mario Andretti. The sound is incredible--almost like being at a race--and the visuals are breathtaking. I'm sorry I never had a chance to see this on an IMAX screen, but the DVD is the next best thing I'm sure.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wow...What a great movie.
Review: I own this DVD. I just wanted to respond to the review from Mike M. below. Another reviewer commented as well, these scenes are NOT sped up. The racing in the CART and IRL series is REALLY this intense! That's why these drivers are truly althletes, contrary to much popular belief. This film was shot a few years ago and the driver's heads really bobbed around as Mario's did in this movie. The newer race cars have padding and safety features which limit the head and neck movement for safety reasons.

I had the opportunity to race an open wheeled car at a racing school, and this DVD accurately captures that seat-of-the-pants feeling. The only thing missing was the wind whipping past your head.

This is a great DVD, and I highly recommend it.
