Having done all my recent shopping for DVDs at Tescos my first thought was "Twenty Pounds!"
But, I enjoyed the previous disc of Rollcentre campaigning the Radical, so I shall be asking so-called Santa Claus if he could do the honours. |

I live in Durham, North Carolina and received "Chasing the Dream" several days ago. I haven't unwrapped it yet as I'm waiting for a new laptop. But if it's better than last year's production, which I thought was very well done, then we're in for treat, especially after considering DSC's ringing endorsement.

I dont want to spoil a party but I've already got this as the publishers(?) were doing the two at a discounted price. Awsome vid and I must say Stuart shows the typical F3 primadonna attitude at times. Quick lad though !
ETA: V quick delivery too. Ordered online last thursday received in post friday! Excellent service! |

I dont mean to upset anyone, but this DVD is terrible........I was going to start a thread saying saying so, but thought better of it.......stuart hall just came accross as a tantrum thrower over even minor things.......although I will agree, his pace in the wet qualifying was very good, and he helped finish the race in teribble conditions........I think he just needs to calm down a little, as his current attitude will not earn him the works status he currently desires.
I dont believe all his income is from stacking shelves, he is way too well spoken for that, I felt that part was a particular con.......the DVD featured hardly any detail of the actual race events, and how they finished 4th. once the DVD finished I honestly wondered why I 'd bothered. |

Thanks a lot for your inside info, Martin. We're very lucky John went through all the efforts of making these movies, this way we get a nice insight view of the race we all love so much.
Best of luck for the '08-season. Fingers crossed for a podium finish, you deserve it! |

Appreciate the candid explanations Martin, I still love the films and have lent them to various freinds to whet their appetite for Le Mans! Thanks again for giving the director the chance to make the films in the first place!
Hope 2008 is more friutful, will be cheering you on all the way! |

Stop arguing about Stuart Hall. He has done a great job this year for Creation and Rollcentre Racing. Stuart hall went to Le Mans this year as a rookie, you have to understand you only get a couple of practice laps and you’re in the race (in the unknown) and as a rookie he contributed a fantastic result at Le Mans. Some people are judging him when this thread was clearly put here to discuss the film (Which was excellent ).

What was that expression Martin "armchair pundits"? It's so easy to criticize from the comfort of the living-room.... Happy you jumped in the discussion, a true breath of fresh air!

Its always interesting to see whats going on on these pages, there's a lot of well informed people here, but just sometimes........I can't contain myself....I cannot see myself as a breath of fresh air.....maybe a little superheated at times! But thanks! And apologies for butting in. MS.
