Product Description

Peter Starr's epic motorcycle film "Take it to the Limit" has been painstakingly re-mastered and finally available. This jam-packed DVD includes lots of bonus material, including a documentary on the making and commentary from the director. The film that set new standards for documentary production in 1980 is available in a special 30th Anniversary Special Limited Edition DVD. The package comes with a newly produced retrospective documentary on the making of the film where the stars of the movie, Roberts, Baker, Collins, DeCoster, Penhall, Bast, Bakken, Evans, Springsteen, Keener among others share their personal recollections of their contribution to the movie. For example, Kenny Roberts, Jay Springsteen and Corky Keener share their insights into the now legendary 1975 INDY Mile, where Roberts not only shocked his competitors, but the whole dirt track racing world. It also comes with a 32 page booklet containing some interesting memorabilia of the film’s history

This is the only motorcycle video in the same league as the original "On Any Sunday" video. I only wish it was available in DVD format. I've checked everywhere in the world for it, but no-go.

Few people outside of motorcycle enthuiasts know about Steve Baker and what he did for motorcycling. He was a true pioneer in GP Road Racing. He was the first American to win a road racing world championship, when in 1977 he won the Formula 750 Title. This video highlights Steve's career.

If you get the chance to watch this video - DO IT!

Save your money. This movie is not made well at all. Filmed so dark in many places, you can not see who's talking. There is a real reason the film did not make the big time. To compare this film to "On any Sunday" would be like comparing drum to disc brakes. Very poorly done. Waste of time. Go ride.

I admit that I have not seen this film since it was playing in theaters but I do remember at least some bits that I dearly which I could revisit on DVD. In particular, Mike Hailwood on a TZ750 blowing by some guy in the fog at the top of the hill on the Isle of Man.

More documetary, could have had more race coverage, it was okay, but "ON ANY SUNDAY" movie was better.
