Super-șoseaua de viteză (1997)

Super Speedway

Documentarul urmărește echipa de curse Newman-Haas (Andretti) pe parcursul unui sezon, de la construcție și teste până la competiții. Materialul include numeroase imagini filmate pe circuit la viteză de cursă, printre care și câteva secvențe dinaintea cursei cu întreaga flotă de mașini. Din când în când, facem o vizită la un mic atelier unde se construiește și se restaurează unul dintre primele roadster-uri cu care a concurat Mario Andretti; finalul include o scurtă tură pe care o face el însuși cu mașina.

Curiozități

Super Speedway is a 1997 documentary racing film chronicling one man's quest to get his new Champ Car Lola chassis up to speed, and another's goal of rebuilding an old 1964 roadster once driven by the legendary Mario Andretti. The film was directed by renowned IMAX director Stephen Low and produced by Pietro Serapiglia. It was narrated by Paul Newman. It first premiered at IMAX theaters nationwide.

Production

The film took over four years to shoot. The car was equipped with an IMAX camera and driven by Mario Andretti. Michael Andretti drove his teammate Christian Fittipaldi's car in the film. Mario reached speeds up to 240 mph at Michigan International Speedway at director Low's request. Newman/Haas Racing was the only team interested in the project in the technical world of Indy Car racing.

The film features Mario and Michael Andretti during the 1996 season driving for Newman/Haas Racing. During the season, Michael Andretti won a season-high five races and finished 2nd in the championship to Jimmy Vasser. At the end of the film, Mario is reunited with his old roadster for a once-in-a-lifetime experience and can be seen driving it thru the countryside.
