Anyone else watch this movie/documentary?

I got it on Net Flix and is sort of about Pro-Touring in a way. Eric Bana has a Ford Falcon down under and has owned it since he was 15. The last build was a full PT race build for a targa race. Has Jay Leno, Jeremy Clarkson and Dr Phil. It was an interesting insight into his life with the car and it's transformations.

It's an interesting story about man and machine...helps make some sense of it to wives..hint, hint.

I watched the trailer and ordered it on Amazon- even with Dr Phil in it- thanks for the heads up- Chris

I am not a big movie guy, but I liked it and did not fall asleep which is a huge testiment.

Thought it was pretty cool. Still have it on DVR from when it ran on Speed.

I do belive that he stacked that car up pretty badly....I remember reading about his injuries, etc.
Sorry he wrecked it, but he was at an open track event, so good for him, he was using at as intended!
