New racing movie comming to a theater near you
I hope this is gonna be a good one. Hard to tell from the trailer. I'm sure it's not gonna be totally accurate, it will be a Hollywood version of the truth. IMO, Matt Damon is the wrong person to play Carrol Shelby but he'll put butts in the seats.

I like it.
You can tell from the clip that they have Hollywooded it but, it is a great story.
Dont normally support the Hollywood elitists movies but I will take the wife to this one.
Course they will have to interject their draaama, scandal, sex etc....I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

That all happened when I was a young road racing fan, still a kid. I had some inkling of what went on, have learned more since, but Hollywood or it should be a great fun ride.

They should have cast Vince Vaughn as Carroll Shelby. I feel like he would have made a better Don Aronow(Ben Aronoff) in Speed Kills, too.

Actually, Josh Brolin would have been a better Shelby.

They put matt damon in and I won't watch it. It is a good story but I won't give them my money to tell me what I and doing wrong and who I MUST support and vote for.
I carry a gun because a cop won't fit in my pocket.
