"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

Thanks for posting.  Can't get enough of this topic, and it certainly primes the pump for the upcoming movie.  I'm so glad this story is finally getting the exposure it deserves, even if it has to be with Mat Damon at the helm.  I'm surprised they left in the salty language from Dave Friedman, but I'm sure that's exactly what Ken Miles did say.


Thanks,

I know a lot of people who were around the program and at LeMans. They all pan the movie and it is still being recut. Some have declined to have their names associated with the movie until it's right.

I hope they cut that B.S. Scene where the Duece is brought to tears by a parking lot burn-out.  😡
