I too would like to have a source to buy that documentary. Please let us know where we can do so. I'm sure there wasn't this huge investment for one single showing. That doesn't seem right.

My DVR inexplicably missed it as well. It is apparently available as a free iTunes download. Downloading it now.

Around these parts, we just call it Sebring, the 12 hours, or the 12 hours of Sebring. Are you Don Panoz?

Being an avid Audi fan, I loved it. I never knew what a hero 'H' was!

Downloading from iTunes now..

I though ti was very cool, and the narrator (the transporter guy, Natham, right?) was perfect for the job.

I was thinking the same thing, he seemed like your typical North American racing driver who has to enter all the sponsor names in the world before every sentences.

Patrick,

Sorry to "ruin" this for you but it was fast forwarded, the shot was not from an R10 but from an Audi station wagon, look at the shadow on the left when they're at the beginning of the Mulsanne, I don't think R10s have roof racks... Also, the car this car is slowly catching looks to be some kind of a boxy street car.
