There was one other great racing movie, Lemans (1970) with Steve McQueen. Garner was great in Grand Prix. I like'm both equally.

I suppose tastes in films vary a lot. I was certainly a Steve McQueen fan, but Lemans never came close to comparing with Grand Prix.

I thought that was a great movie too.

36 Hours was a decent film worth watching once but it was a long way from James Garner's best efforts.
