Carrera Panamericana (1950-1954) (2012)
Excellent interview John Fitch!

The interview with John Fitch is worth the price of the DVD. John talks about his experiences during the actual racing. He claims he could never have been the passenger because "the passenger is always a pessimist and the driver the optimist."
There is lots original footage along with Dr. David Scully giving his explanation of why the original race ended in 1954. Today the race lives on as a tribute race called "La Carrera Panamericana."
Don't miss the pig story from Sharon Baker who was a member of Bill Stroppe's team who drove for Lincoln out of Los Angeles.
Porsche, Mercedes, Ferrari, Lincoln, Lancia.
Steven Mitchell's laid back interview style works well with the subjects interviewed in this documentary.
