Our friends at Saleen sent the following announcement:

This special features the creation of the Saleen S7 Supercar. It follows the S7 from the drawing board, through wind tunnel to testing the prototype in Wales, and to the assembly line in Irvine where race cars and street cars are built side by side. This not to be missed special will also feature the story of an automotive pioneer, Steve Saleen, who built an uncompromising car whose sole purpose was to beat the world?s best car.

Yes, it was a good watch... some good vintage race footage of Steve in his GT350 and the early Saleen Mustangs, as well as the widebody cars at Le Mans..s.

A fair amount of that was made up of footage I've seen elsewhere, about most I hadn't seen even though it was shot during the development of the S7 which would make that portion 6-7 years old.

Seems even the whole show had been sitting in the can since probably early 2006, but it was a good presentation.

Related... there's also a new Victory By Design on Ford which I'm going to try to catch.
