Unhappy



The Fast and The Furious spent a total of (I'm trying to recall this strictly from memory) $315,000 on the cars and then spent another $200,000 "tuning" them. Now $200,000 is an assload of money but when we're talking about 20 or so cars, thats an average of about $1,000 per vehicle. And they spent a whole lot of money on the supra (which actually did 10.6 quarter miles(that is of course with "NOS" or as I call it NAWZ), which is why Vin Diesel raced him in the Charger and not his p.o.s. RX-7.) For the entire tuning of the Supra they spent $42,000 not including Labor, and for the Charger they spent nearly $60,000 to make that heavy-ass shit run a 10 second quarter. And also notice that tuning includes that Vinyl shit and bodykits that they figured would add the extra 100 hp they needed. Anyways, all in all, Fast and Furious did nothing to the cars but add bodykits and graphics and maybe a short ram for every one of the cars on that god-forsaken flick. Every car that had a turbo( besides the Supra) used a stock turbo system. If you remember the first race, the RX-7 (used a stock turbo version), and the Eclipse(GS-T for turbo, no upgrade) were the only ones who even had turbo, the other's simply used a cold-air intake and had a front mount OIL COOLER added to make it look like they had a turbo sys on them. They say Movie-Magic I say movie Bull-Shit

How does a car(charger) do a wheelie while smoking the tires?
You get 1 or the other - not both

Amen to that. That also didn't fit. What they did to make it do this was they soaked the tires in bleach and WD-40, which provides the white smoke and the ability for the tires to slip during the weelie. That's the only way that it can possibl be achieved. Now that was a long burnout while doing a wheelie...Yes it was, but it wasn't real they had about 5-6 different cameras taping the 1 second burnout and they played it from several different angles on the movie. Dumb, yes. did it actually burnout though, sadly enough, yes.

Also forgot to mention that they used a prop machine to yank the front of the car up off the ground with a hook that snapped off after the car got airborne, after it was airborne the power of the car finished bringing it to a full wheelie.

The posers are'nt ruining it for the "hardcore" racers. A harcore racer does'nt really give a rats ass what kind of "ricer" crap they put in a movie. A harcore racar thinks about his/her own car rather than "ricer" part some kid put on his/her car.

Sure I don't like the wannabe cars either...but bitchin about it does'nt help. I vent in a different way...I go hunting for wannabes and race them. Weapon of choice???...My pop's GSR, or a 1.5 civic (depends what I feel like driving).

Don't like "ricers"...DO SOMETHING about it. Take a sledgehammer and beat the crap out of every car you don't like, will that help you?!?!

For fucks sake

It's a fucking MOVIE

ITS ALL PROPS AND ILLUSIONS

Do you really think they're going to spend 60 grand tuning a car so it really runs 10s? If they can create the illusion that it does, that works for them. Stop whining that this is wrong, that is wrong, this is stupid blah blah blah. It's all entertainment.

Some people's children, sheesh.

I would, if I was making the movie.

If you want to see a good film, go to kazaa, and DL a movie called "the Last Race". It's only about 25 mins long, but it's much more realistic than TFTF, and that makes it better.

Also - I haven't watched either incarnation of the movie and I don’t plan too.
