Default Racing Movies

What are your top three movies that involve a lot of car action? Here is a list of car movies I've seen, feel free to list more movies and I will add them:
  • Born to Race (2011) (not bad at all for a low budget movie!)
  • Death Race (2008)
  • Drive Angry (2011)
  • Fast and Furious (2001)
  • 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003)
  • Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006)
  • Fast & Furious (2009)
  • Fast Five (2011)
  • Gone in Sixty Seconds (2000)
  • Redline (2007)
  • Speed (1994)
  • IMAX Super Speedway (2000)
  • Transporter (2002)
  • Transporter 2 (2005)
  • Transporter 3 (2008)
  • The Wraith (1986)

I wonder if the following movies should qualify as racing movies? Some of these I haven't seen... others - well, they don't have enough car action imo or they focus on other things too much.
Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006)
Speed Racer (2008)
Driven (2001)
Faster (2004)
Italian Job (2003)

Same here. I really liked that movie, but its not truly a racing movie... it just has some race scenes, but the movie would probably be almost the same without those cute mini coopers

IMAX Super Speedway. You have to watch with a proper sound system. Gives me chills every time I watch it.

Does this include movies with epic chase scenes? Because you can't leave out two of the all-time classics, "Bullitt" and "The French Connection"
