Fast and the Furious

You guys remember that movie? I just bought the DVD.
Man, i love all the souped up cars.
Do you think it captures the excitement of street racing?

I wish there was more tv shows or movies like this around. anyone know of any?

they need a reality show about this kind of thing, that would rock!

Re: Fast and the Furious

Well, we've been through this before, but I think most everyone on here would say this: From an entertainment perspective, it's excellent...From a realism perspective, it's a disaster.

Movie = unrealistic and makes stupid kids think that their moms stock 117hp civic is really really fast...


actually Global TV in Canada tried to do a "street tuner" reality show...the only episode I saw was 3 teams were given 3 Civics...they modified it and added boost and it only ran like 14.9's...i never watched it again and it was cancelled

so basically no they shouldnt make reality F&F shows...monster garage is all i need!
