Once upon a Wheel on Speed Channel with Paul Newman
Anyone else see "Once upon a dream" on Speed channel tonight?
Showing again in 2 hours, its hosted by Paul Newman and has racing footage from years ago. The music is absolute rubbish and almost makes you want to turn the volumn down, but the footage of the old CanAm cars, Formula One and such is well worth watching. Also has Newman interviewing drivers from Jacky Stewart to Mark Donohue. Am putting it on the Tivo to get the entire program! Joe A

Watched it. Excellent show. Music sounds like bad school moivies from our youth. Lots of Porsche footage. The 914's were kinda cool to hear.
Lorne Greene rocked, man!!! Dig the sideburns.

Only caught the last 1/4 of the show. Hoping it's available somewhere on DVD. Anyone know?!?
Cool documentary on the racing scene of the 60's and 70's... -Z.

Thanks, changed it. Was tired last night and lucky to be able to type at all. Z, I have it on Tivo and when I get the software and WiFi bugs worked out may be able to make a "backup copy" ... Joe A
