Fast cars are a way of life.
I know this better than most. My grandfather raced Porsches back in the 1970s, and my father and brother have carried on the tradition. They spend about one weekend a month at the track, and a good portion of the rest of their time building racecars. Racing, and the racing life, requires just as much time, dedication, and money, as any other sport, but, you go a hell of a lot faster.
Ford v. Ferrari is an homage to the sport, and, a touching tribute to one of its finest: Ken Miles.
