Default Have you seen these movies?

I was going to go splurge on some dvds tomorrow or sometime this week and i was curious in what people thought about some of these racing flicks. If you seen them, heard anything about them or just think they look stupid, say something; i wanna know. K here goes:

1. Winning w/ Paul Newman
2. Gumball Rally (original)
3. Le Mans w/ McQueen
4. Vanishing Point -1971 version
5. Super Speedway
6. Dirty Mary Crazy Larry
7. Grand Prix

Plus, If you seen a great racing/chase film tell me what it is! thanks

Ok, so im on the right track it looks like. For the Super Speedway, ya thats what i am referring to the IMAX. The Dirty Mary Crazy Larry is suppose to be a breakthrough with chase scenes for movies. It was pre cannonball run and Smokey and the Bandit. Apparently they say this movie sparked those in the 70s

vanishing point 1971 edition is great. A lot of great driving and a naked hot chick on a motorcycle. It's a bit long for it's story, but once you look past that. it simply great. Fantastic soundtrack as well.
