Classic Australian Touring Car Crashes (2002)
There have been some memorable racing moments in the rich history of the Australian Touring Car Championship. And also lots and lots of crashes. There were plenty of crashes when they introduced V8 Supercars in 1993 If the fans were the winners, as they got to see some very hard racing, the panel beaters were a close second judging by the wrecked cars that were typically strewn around the circuit at the end of the races. Re-live the early years of V8 Supercars and the moments when the legends of Australian touring car racing were, well, just a little but less than legendary. And a few very special moments, so get ready for some action.

Hot Rod Heaven (2005)
The cult of hot rodding took root in 1940s America, amongst young
enthusiasts with little or no money who were eager to play around
with what was still a novel piece of machinery. Today specimens
can sell for upwards of $1 million, and the popularity of these
unique combinations of classic designs and state-of-the-art engines
and chassis just keeps on growing.
This fascinating programme traces the evolution of the hot rod
- from its post-war explosion in California, through the days of
illegal street-racing, to the international spectator sport of drag
racing. Along the way, we interview the people who have shaped this
phenomenon, including Alex Xydias, Pete Chapouris, Tony Thacker,
Jimmy Shine, and Andy & Roy Brizio.
We pay a visit to the Bonneville Salt Flats, regarded as one of
the birthplaces of hot rodding, to break the 200mph record with
the guys from the So-Cal Speed Shop. Plus, we check out the Grand
National Roadster Show in San Francisco, and the biggest nostalgia
drag race in Famosa, CA - capturing plenty of tyre smoke, ear-splitting
noise and awesome speeds! Finally, we search out some of todays
coolest street machines back at the So-Cal Speed Shop and Roy
Brizio Street Rods.
Recreated using a mixture of archive and modern footage, alongside
insightful interviews with the men who made it happen, this is the
story of an American passion and the desire to build a dream.

Review: Canadian filmmaker Ron Mann has specialized in making counter-cultural documentaries since 1978, and Tales of the Rat Fink is his masterpiece. Rarely has the combination of technique and subject matter been presented with such symbiotic perfection, and Mann's tribute to Ed "Big Daddy" Roth will appeal to anyone who recalls the glory days of hot rods and custom cars. Roth pioneered customizing in the late '50s, taking his cue from the legendary Von Dutch (whose automotive pinstripes "flowed like jazz") to become the first hot-rodder to sculpt custom cars out of fiberglass, the first to airbrush custom "monster" designs on T-shirts, and the inventor of Rat Fink, the "anti-Mickey Mouse" adopted as the drooling mascot of rodders, surfers, model-building hobbyists and assorted misfits throughout the '60s. Roth's best-known custom cars--The Outlaw, The Beatnik Bandit, Mysterion and others--remain timeless classics of southern California's custom-car culture, and they're all shown here on dazzling display.
It's a pity Roth (1932-2001) didn't live to witness Mann's exquisite collaboration with animator Mike Roberts, whose dynamic contributions bring Rat Fink to life in all his wretched glory. John Goodman splendidly narrates as a posthumous Roth, looking back at his creations as numerous pop-cultural icons (Ann-Margret, the Smothers Brothers, and author Tom Wolfe, who first brought Roth to the world's attention) lend their voices to custom cars that "talk" with flashing headlights, similar to (but more reverent than) Pixar's Cars. It's a perfect way of honoring Roth, the culture he created, and the enduring legacy of his "weirdo" ingenuity. Mann's playful tribute makes it perfectly clear that Roth and Rat Fink embody a creative spirit that will live forever. --Jeff Shannon

Dreams of Legends - The Way It REALLY Was
Part 1- Real California Hot Rodding
Part 2- The Dry Lakes
Part 3- Drag Racing
Part 4- Bonneville .
A new documentary movie about the last 65 years of California hot rodding and early auto racing from the Dreams of Legends, titled 'the way it really was'. Amassing hours and hours of authentic, vintage footage, thousands of unique images and modern interviews with the legends themselves. All of this makes for a one-of-a-kind video that encapsulates our hot rod roots right down to the unmistakable sounds of Al Teague's 432mph, V8 streamliner, screaming across the Bonneville salt flats in a land speed record breaking run and the nitro cackle from iron hemi powered front engine diggers at the early drags. With in depth coverage of the personalities that were there to help make it all happen, photos that more often than not, have never been seen until now and newly remastered footage from as far back as 1947, this promises to give hot rodders what they want. This folks is genuine, the real McCoy, no Hollywood inflated claims, just how it was with some of the legends behind our modern day hot rodding pastime. This is the Greatest Hits download, with nothing but the sounds and images of Bonneville, the dry lakes and drag racing, from 1947 - 1966, set to the music of today's great rock-a-billy bands, The Juke Joint Gamblers, The Hot Rod Rebels, and the Keen Kousins to name a few...this is a must see for every 'traditional hot rodder'. Get ready for something you've never seen before. And be sure you have the sound turned up real loud!
Never before seen footage, photos, interviews and sounds! The movie that you've been waiting for is here! 65 years in the making, from Ed Winfield to Al Teague, Tony Waters, Don Garlits, Nolan White, Ed Iskenderian, Billy Frontuto, Vic Colvin, the Markley Bros., John Edmunds, Hayden Proffitt, Charlie Hamilton, Rick White, Mike Cook, Mickey Thompson, Don Long, Freddie Lobello, Russ Eyers, Gene Winfield, Rich Richards, Gary Richards, Joaquin Arnett & the Bean Bandits, the San Diego Roadster Club, Julio Hernandez, Nick Arias, Stormin Norman Weekly, Bob Herda, Harry Hoffman, the Smokers, Ernie Murashige & the M&V Speed Shop, Gray Baskerville, Paul Hornung and many, many more stories that you never even knew existed -- until now.
