The Fast and The Furious

[riceviking]

Hi Guys!
I just finished watching "the fast and the furious" for the 100th time (more or less) and I'm not usually the one to point out errors but this one kind of got caught on my mind. I've yet to figure out why Brian (in the green eclipse) looses the floor on his passenger side while racing. Ok, I can live with this, cause it looks cool, BUT, when he picks up Dom a couple of minutes later, It looks as though it's all ok again. What does Dom rest his feet on?? This is weird..any good solutions y'all?

LOL Indeed, that doesn't make sence..
Also before the floor went gone he got a "danger to manifold" warning message and bang the floor blows away
What's under that floorboard that can make a thing like that happen? right....nothing
Ah well, it's still a cool movie

Haha, I still haven't seen it

WHAT ???? You must be the only one then

I've got it on DVD a couple of weeks ago
and with al the extras on it, its a good choice

OK the story is kinda (hmmm, how can I say this nice)............Not good
But the cars and the racing makes it a cult classic I guess

In Holland there have been a couple of accidents with "streetracers"
Some died in a crash (Opel GSi), other only got there VW dented

But the Dutch police is now really putting the heat on "streetracing
Ïf they catch you doing a race then you can turn in your License and car.

At least that's what I heard, dont know if they are really going to do it.
But in a couple of interviews with those "streetracers" they asked them
why they raced? And there answer: Fast and the Furious

@ civic16v16i: by the way.. you were complaining about no noise from your exhaust hé?? on the outside your exhaust doesn't make much noise, that's right , but i noticed your exhaust isn't that silent in the car itself... strange..

[riceviking]

Streetracing is not very usual up here at all. There's not enough long stretches to do "quartermiles". But racing around our mountains is way cool, but you need a stiff car that do turns, not a car that's fast on the stretches. On the highway you'll get smoked by old guys in company RS 4's.... boring...But I go in style..I go in a Honda..
BTW, I gotta get around buying The F&F DVD...DivX is cool, but that film decerves to be bought...

Do you think so????

I dont know what people hear when I drive by
Maybe you should drive my car sometime and I can listen how it sounds when you drive by

But the noise on the inside is because of my open air intake I guess.
After that mod I really heard a change in noise production.

I forgot you had an open air intake... that should make the sound then because your car doesn't make much sound when driving (or standing) behind.
Drive your car... rally your car ...mwhaaaaoo

also when letty races that guy in the white rx-7 at drag wars.....at first it shows her sittin in a racing seat then when the camera goes back it's a grey stock seat..hehe

Hehe, they really need to doublecheck things before they start recording I mean to have read somewhere that in one of the scenes of Braveheart, they had to take over a 100 takes, because there were always a dork that didn't manage to take his watch of... The Fast and The Furious still kick ass!
