Raceing Is My Life
Along with the little people in the cubes my son loves NASCAR anything. So along with a book, Dale Ernhardt Sr DVD and a few other things, I got him this DVD. He loves it. Says it's great.

NASCAR IMAX DVD
Got this for my 4yr old twins who are obsessed with NASCAR. They've learned numbers from watching all the cars flash by! I thought there'd be more racing footage, crashes, etc... but this is more of a documentary. Despite this, the boys love this video and they've learned the history/background of how NASCAR originated and what goes on behind the scenes. I am also glad it's only about 45 min so they are not in front of the tube all day! For crashes and explosions we'll have to go to Youtube.

Fun and informative
Very interesting film for Nascar fans. The book takes you behind the scenes to see what goes into building the cars that you see on the track. It also presents the more personal sided of the drivers which I found very interesting. I bought this for my 6 year old and he enjoyed it, though he doesn't ask to watch it all the time.

Good start!
NASCAR - The IMAX Experience
NASCAR - The IMAX Experience is a good place to start for those who have not followed NASCAR closely, or who have never attended a NASCAR race. The plot line of the movie briefly covers the history of NASCAR including its well-known roots in moonshine running all cleverly recreated, and then loosely follows the pre race prep of a typical team. Behind the scenes footage at this point is very good and the race scenes are also good. To get five stars I would have wished for much much more onboard footage and for cameras to be placed in strategic locations to open up the behind the scenes activities during the race. That's a lot to ask for but there it is.
Overall, a good film at a very reasonable price that would appeal to novice or younger NASCAR enthusiasts.

COOL DVD
This is a wonderful DVD for Nascar fans, but you don't even have to like Nascar to enjoy this.
Make sure you have your home theater system cranked-up for this.
All I have to say is WOW!

Loud and proud
The NASCAR world was one completely foreign to me a year ago. Then my son (who was then 5) got hooked on the racing scenes in the Cars movie, and suddenly he discovered NASCAR... and now all our Sunday afternoons are booked watching races.
I bought this DVD for my son for his birthday a couple of weeks ago. It's really interesting and well done. I watch it having already been brought up to speed on the sport; I know nearly all the drivers, their sponsors, and their car numbers. But I imagine this documentary would be nearly as fascinating to newbies, mostly because of the IMAX treatment -- cameras putting you "right there," in this case right down on the track as cars whip by.
The DVD includes a good history lesson and great explanations of how a track functions on race day. The pit crews get proper treatment, too. One criticism is that few individual races or drivers are highlighted; perhaps the filmmakers simply wanted to emphasize the "experience."
I wish I had seen this on an IMAX screen!

An Aussie Review
NASCAR - The Imax Experience was an interesting documentary giving an insight into NASCAR. It could have been a little longer, but was enjoyable.

Imax Nascar
DVC well done. Shipping less than satisfactory-requested & paid for 2 day shipping for Christmas & confirmed. Next day rec'd email that item would be shipped after Christ (no reason provided). Following an email complaint item was shipped next day mail for free! and arrived on time. Also problems occurred when attempted to play on surround sound.

Nascar Imax-great fun-who knew? I max does not diasappoint !
I bought this as a joke for my friends who have just discovered Nascar! I must admit I found it interesting. Though I am not a fan of Nascar as they are, I can see the fun and attraction but must they always go in a circle-makes my neck hurt! Bring on demolition derby-my hidden favorite! Now if IMax could film that-WOW!
