There were movies with awesome car orientedness, like gone in 60 seconds, but as far as being just SATURATED with things that we know and love, there was nothing before this series.

As far as being "correct", you can't make a movie that enthralls the ignorant masses without a bit of flash and fudgery.
We may love to have heard dom rattle off "SRT internalled 2.4 w/P&P head, 2.0 cams, no 90* intake, 2gen tb with a knife edged 1 gn throttle plate, egr/evap/ps/ac delete, stage 2 centerforce clutch, msIII extra with peak and hold board, gt35 turbo with ASP manifold, etc", the fact is that that stuff bores people who know nothing.
Who the hell's Mr. Smartypants? Welcome sir, spread the knowledge!

It sucks that the movies have to be bs'ed up a bit just to get good reviews from moron action movie reviewers.

FatTire has been pretty darn drunk at my house before. That means he's cool peeps yo!

But yea, I agree. It's dumb, but it's a car movie with a plot and embellishment added secondary.

Yep, I was friggin wasted on like three mikes hard lemonades one night at neons '09 at Ericks house. I had never seen one of those air mattresses with the hand pump in the hole, and summarily assumed that you could just squish the air in with your hand like a plunger, on any old mattress.
I got on here because I bought a wrecked '04 sxt for 550 for my wife. it hit a fire hydrant.
I make/made/am close to making again parts for 1gens. I could make some things for 2gens eventually as i learn their needs.

An added motor mount somewhere to further stop rotation, please.

But that's for another thread.

At least in fast and furious, the wheelie was real. Or at least was believeably real looking.

I think even that was fake :rofl:

I'm pretty sure they used cgi to cover up the ramp as well as a hydraulic piston that popped the car up.

at least there is a couple decent cars. theres no argueing the series brings in money. Fast & Furious (4) is the second highest grossing racing movie behind Cars. It had the biggest opening weekend earnings ever for a April release movie and I think they intend to break that record again this year. Of course the acting sucks, and the storylines blow, and theres a lot of dumb stuff we laugh at. but its entertainment at the end of the day.
