Here's a documentary movie that is true to the core. Based directly on the Petty story from Lee Petty and ending in the 70's with Richard Petty. It stars Richard Petty as himself, and the racing action is great. It's a great insight to the greatest circle track racer of all time! It also has a cameo appearance of Buddy Baker The movie also helps give an insight to some of the early years of racing including driver "brotherhood", crooked track promoters, dirty driving, & the simple reason people choose to race. I got the DVD for Christmas and it is a "Double Feature" which also includes The Wrestler. The DVD is manufactured by PC Treasures, Inc. located in Oxford MI.

It's a great watch. Just keep in mind this was pre-6 Pack and is really a documentary more so than a big budget blockbuster. But it's good *Also: recommended for girlfriends & wives of racers world-wide. It gives you a small look into how we racers think.

I need to bring you Dirt the Movie, it's more of a documentary too, filmed at Devil's Bowl in Mesquite.
