GUMBALL RALLY.... not cannonball or whatever it was called with burt renolds and whoever.

gumball rally... ABOUT the real cannonball amateur coast to coast 'race'. Filmed in the mid 70's maybe.

of course I was (still am) freaky about AC cobras as a teenager... it's got a cobra, ferrari, xke, american muscle, even an el camino... and groovy chicks too.

I won't tell you who wins

oh sorry, I didn't notice the poll thingy... just read the title.... besides those aren't really 'car movies'... they are RACE car movies... that narrows it down.

in that case... I go for Winning with Paul Newman ;-)

In my opinion there's only two great car movies, Le Mans with Steve McQueen and Grand Prix with James Garner.

Between these two movies, which one do you think is your favorite.

(I have alterior motives for this poll question ;-))

How is this on topic? In your opinion, there are only two great car movies? I do not share your opinion, although I like both films and have met several people involved with the Frankeheimer production. Rather than hint at your lterior motives, it would have been easier if you told us what they were. Then maybe we could better analyze your poll question.

What makes a great car movie anyway? Cars in movies? You never explained the reasons for your two choices.

P.S. No one mentioned Barry Newman in Vanishing Point, then there's Two Lane Blacktop not to mention countless others with chases or races in them.

Scott never posts anywhere but the main forum. We forgive him because he is, after all, our Fearless Leader.

And besides, "If you're not first, you're last." (That has nothing whatsoever to do with anything - but it's a pretty cool quote from The Legend Of Ricky Bobby, the Greatest NASCAR Car Movie, ever made.)

It was just a fun question dude, lighten up.

you were all incorrect.

You are correct that everyone is incorrect - but they (we) are incorrect for the incorrect reasons. To correct the incorrectness, one simply should not forget the Charlie Sheen classic - "The Chase," featuring ScottNC's favorite ride (a BMW model number that begins with, dare we say in front of ScottNC - a "3").
