hello all

sorry if this is too far off topic, but does anyone know where I can find a copy of "Death Race" (1973)? VHS or DVD, not picky, but DVD preferred...

cheers

I found mine on Ebay. Try searching under "State of Divison" in addition to "Death Race".

Yes as discussed in the Hanger, "Death Race"(1973) is the same movie
as "State of Division"(1986 re-release of DR). Yes, you can get copies on
E-bay, but after reading some customer comments quality can vary. Some
are bootlegged that can range from poor to excellent.

I wasn't able to find DR or SoD at the Deep Discount site mentioned above,
although they did have some neat ones that interested me. Was it an
error in my search? Did you folks fare any better?

I wondered into a Bell X-2 website a coupla weeks ago and found a
testamonial and link page of where to obtain quality copies of the 1958
test-pilot movie, "Toward the Unknown". It's been ages since I've seen
this neat classic. This company will burn you a movie from original stock
as I understand it. They aren't exactly cheap, but if you really are not
satisfied with something you found on E-bay or the bargain-bin at Wal-Mart
then you might give this outfit a try...there is mention of group purchase
savings...if anyone uses them ask about multi-copy discounts and give us
some feedback please?

Oh, and while your in there(X-2 site) check out the photos from "Toward the
Unknown". Bell X-2, Martin XB-51, XF-92A, B-50 dropship and other neat stuff
as well as the X-2 history..it's a great little website.

Direct link to Movielead in case the X-2 site croaks one day...
