Not so Fast & Furious

Channel surfing yesterday and came across Fast and Furious. It was on a four car race scene, where the car starts to fall apart at 140 mph, but that's not even the funniest part. I realized the race was taking a hell of a long time, so I hit the rewind on the DVR and clocked the race. It took them a minute and a half to get up to 140 mph. Now that's comedy.

and if it wasnt a 1/4 mile race, and it actually DID take place in real time..... the average speed of a 0-140mph in 90 seconds is about 93mph... not counting the space it took to slow down and stop, that "race" would have covered 1.6 miles.......in urban LA.... yeah right

Fast And Furious In 60 Seconds?

That sounds like a perfect role for Nic Cage these days. Maybe Fast And Kick *** Furious?

I like when they shift about 17 times in a drag race. What kind of trans is in that Mitsubishi? Peterbilt?

Steve McQueen was in about 18th gear when that Charger went boom. They musta pulled it from Bullitt.

At the rate of acceleration (or lack thereof) in those cars, I was thinking Seabiscuit, not Bullitt.

Hey know, I'm sure I'm in the minority, but Ghost Rider was sweet and I'm going to see #2.

Let the bashing begin.
