Supposed to be a really good film, i recall him being on "Wossy" and Clarkson talking about the film, and crashing it during filming :( looks good.

Bana does some serious competition racing in Australia.

Proper film about a man and his love for his car, and will feel a lot more beleiveable as he directed it, its about him and its all real people.

I've watched this and it's a good watch for a petrol head. A good story.

It's actually really quite moving too, interestingly it shows that even with a great big bank balance sometimes it's not possible to buy things right ...

I have just finished watching this and it was well worth the wait.

Naturally, anything involving copious amounts of V8 and road rallies, this film was always going to hit certain spots. What really struck a nerve with me was the incident that they endured whilst competing and Dr. Phil's snap shot of why it's important not to give up on cars that have such significance in our lives. For anyone that has watched it, you may know why this resonated with me abandoning the GTR in 2007, for those that don't know.............history guys, history.

I loved the film and will almost certainly buy this to add it to my collection. It triggered so many thoughts and feelings. And not just because he has the same Alpinestars gear as me :)
