"Truth in 24"
Showing on ESPN on Friday March 20, at 8 p.m.
http://www.americanlemans.com/News/Article.aspx?ID=5088 For those who haven't heard of it yet. http://www.truthin24.com/ It looks REALLY good. Until now it has only been shown at film festivals across the US. It was made by NFL films because Audi wanted to profile its journey to Le Mans and the race so it could advertise to the public its team. I'm looking forward to it. |

Having seen the 5 clips they released earlier, and reading their info on truthin24.com, I can't wait. A couple early media viewers have said it doesn't come off as a pure ad piece but rather a good story behind what it takes for a 24 race. Maybe it will make ESPN consider picking up a few races with good viewership, worked out well for NASCAR going over to ESPN in the early 90s.

Awesome, can't wait to see it. Just the trailers alone gave me the shivers already.

Bet we don't get it in Canada... TSN will pre-empt it for world tiddlywinks or poker or yet another talking-heads "guys" show. These are the same people who miss the start of F1 races if they overlap with the end of a hockey game. I hope I'm wrong but I suspect I'm not.

Very well done, cinematography. It is great to be able to have a closer view into the world that we all here enjoy so much, as to be avid fans! I enjoyed it and I believe even the Porschefanitiker's among us would.

Beautifully put together - a lot like the Rollcentre films with a dose of Speed Tribe thrown in and all produced with the same sort of production values that went in to Audi's LMPs.
Home taped version I've got has the ESPN ticker on it, which doesn't add a tremendous amount - but I imagine Audi will push this out a lot more widely - it takes infomercial viral ads to a whole new level. |

Personally I was disappointed in the film for many reasons and even stopped watching it 75% of the way through.
