JUAN PABO MONTOYA - RESTART

In 2007, Juan Pablo Montoya made racing history. Montoya was one of the most well-
known racers in the world; a champion of the Indianapolis 500, a champion of the Grand
Prix of Monaco, and a champion in the elite ranks of Formula-One. Then, he chose to
"Restart" his star-studded career in the high-octane, high-impact world of NASCAR.

From road courses to racing ovals, from super speedways to short-tracks, Juan Pablo
Montoya's rookie road was long. From behind the wheel of the famed "42" Car, 2007 was a
test of character and courage.

"Restart" is the story of a family man and a world-renowned racer who started over as a
NASCAR rookie. In his inaugural campaign, Montoya would accomplish more than many
veteran drivers. He won races and he won respect. In a season that tested character and
ability, the rookie reached new levels of promise. "Restart" is the story of Montoya's 2007 NASCAR journey.

The 1979 Daytona 500
– The Complete Race, The Fight, TV and
King Richard.

On February 18, 1979 at the Daytona International Speedway, NASCAR as we know it kicked into a higher gear. For the first time, every lap of a 500-mile race was beamed to television sets across the nation. And what America saw was one of the greatest and most important races in the history of stock car racing.

Sports fans love a great finish and this one was a doozy. Donnie Allison and Cale Yarborough, running 1–2 on the last lap, took each other out of the race in the backstretch with a controversial crash, leaving Richard Petty to beat Darrell Waltrip and A.J. Foyt.

But before that, there was “The Fight.” Bobby Allison had stopped his car near the wrecked remains of brother Donnie and Yarborough’s cars. Suddenly fists were flying as Bobby and Cale charged each other, with Donnie and television viewers across the nation looking on.

This DVD contains the complete 1979 Daytona 500, with coverage from CBS Sports (without
commercial interruption), presented in fullscreen digital video. Now you can watch the race that brought NASCAR to mainstream America.

Running time: 177 minutes.
