Kurt,

Thanks for this, I hadn't seen it before.

All credit to Ford for making the film, though the commentary hasn't stood the test of time.

Nostalgic seeing Cortinas waving their wheels at the crowds but a bit condescending on Clark at the end.

Not sure why Clark had a problem with his front left wheel when it was spending so little time on the ground..... :)
