"Ronin", "Who am I", and "Peacemaker". I love watching those movies, because those car chases are so awesome.

Have you ever seen "Bullitt"? The premier car chase of all time. Steve McQueen definitely was a star of the first magnitude!

Ha ha...I knew that was coming. LA is the car chase capital of the world. That reiminds me, one day some idiot led these cops on a car chase and just stopped on the fwy and wouldn't get out. I think he had a bomb or a gun or something. So they shut the freak'n fwy and the surrounding area. I was stuck on the fwy for hours. Then I was forced to take a detour and ended up getting a speeding ticket on the local streets, all because of that jerk.

Concur on Ronin, directed by John Frankenhiemer who filmed the greatest racing movie of all time, "Grand Prix". What is great is to watch Ronin on DVD and listen to Frankenhiemers comments on how they filmed the chase scene.

Bullit is great to watch if only to count how many hubcaps the Charger loses.

LeMans, hands down, or is that 2 thumbs up? .... the best.
LeMans is my number two. The third is Winning. You must own all three as they are the Holy Trinity of racing movies.

BTW "Driven" SUCKS big time, WORSE than Days Of Thunder and that is REAL BAD.
