Very entertaining, about 45 minutes long, but seems much shorter. Watch for
the Thunderbirds. If it is in 3d, see it. Paul

What's your propensity for getting vertigo? The only drawback (or not)
is that it is pretty overwhelming visually--and loud--and it might make
you dizzy. But I'd say it's worth it.

It's an IMAX presentation - NASCAR 3D. It's been in IMAX theaters
around the country for probably over a year. There's a DVD of it (not
3D, of course). You must not have been watching the races a few years
ago when the TV viewer could see the special 600-pound IMAX cameras
around various tracks, filming footage for the thing. Pretty
impressive - Sadler's comments are the funniest.

No --- I just got interested in NASCAR at the beginning of the 2005 season.
I am not even sure we have an IMAX theatre around here. Never heard of one
anyway.

My closest one is 30 miles away - it's in a "megaplex" cinema outfit -
but there's another one 60 miles away in a museum.

http://www.imax.com/ImaxWeb/welcome.do will let you search by location.

Sounds like popular theatres. [Grin] I am watching NASCAR Fast Forward but will
check if there is one in this area when that finishes.

The new RF 3-D Goggles blow away anything I've seen using those old
1950s cardboard "red & blue"s. Of course, if you shed 'em during the
"race", it will look like double-vision, a little blurry.

Wow, if I had some now, do you think I could see my monitor, then?
