Los Angeles, CA May 4, 2012 – The classic movie Le Mans starring Steve McQueen captures the drama and excitement of one of the world’s greatest motor sports events. Le Mans is a fictional race and semi love story that is wrapped around real Le Mans footage and real race cars. Dare I suggest that there is a new movie that may be its equal in drama and yet is a documentary. This is the story of the Audi Team at La Mans in 2011. They pulled together after some unimaginable race events and came out victorious. The movie is Truth in 24 II “every second counts” and it will air on Speed TV this Saturday PST 1:00 pm. Make the time or make your DVR capture it for you but try not to miss it. The story includes the background and preparation needed for the Audi Team to ready for the worlds most challenging car race. The winning drivers will travel the furthest distance in 24 hours by driving fast, taking chances and having a strong team to back them up. Audi takes the fight to Peugeot where Audi’s young driving guns are relentless for 24 hours. Non race fans and even my teenage daughter can enjoy this story. Truth in 24 II “every second counts” airs for the first time on Speed TV, Saturday May 5th at 1:00 pm. I certainly enjoyed it and I think you will as well. This is Rick Herrick for Big Bear News.
