Indianapolis 500: The 70’s (DVD)

The 1970s could be dubbed the age of empowerment in auto racing. This documentary captures the many technological changes that gave auto racing a boost and redefining the rules of the sport forever. Bigger cars, wings, turbochargers, and ground effects were some of the wonderful new inventions that resulted in faster speeds and more all-around intensity in the competition. Featured here are some of the 1970s legends, such as the Unser Family, A.J. Foyt, and Team Penske. Restored films contributed by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway archives and new interviews uncover fresh elements to a classic period in car racing. Also included is For Whom The Flag Waves, a heart warming profile of Speedway owner Tony Hulman, who is said to be the visionary behind turning the Indy 500 into the epicenter of racing.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33
