Default Truth in 24

Audi asked a documentary film crew (NFL Films, in fact) to do a feature-length project about their 2008 Le Mans campaign. The movie is called Truth in 24 and was shown last Friday (March 20) on ESPN, which I missed because I had no idea the movie existed until I heard a reference to it during the Sebring broadcast. By the previews it looks really cool, but I can't find any further information on how to view it. Anybody have any information?

I watched it. Very good documentary.

Although i did not like how they only focused on Pugeot and Audi and ignored every other team.

Anyways great movie you got to see it.


AUDI FTW!

If you love LeMans, as I do, that was simply OUTSTANDING DRAMA. I had watched it live last year on Speed, almost every single hour they showed, but that film brought things to a pitch even I couldn't appreciate at the time. Well done Audi.
