UGH, now I have to sell my buick and truck
I wish those idiots would stick to working with zippy cars and leave the real cars to people who know what they are doing

Exactly, as soon as I heard V8 noises from the Buick I knew they had it wrong. The stacks are likely cosmetic and have no function. There's another clip of a 70 Chevelle pulling a wheelie on 20's. Back to their same old misleading tricks...
i didnt even listen...the buick sounds like a v8 people get run off the buick forums for doing such things Once you make 1700hp with the v6 then you have the right to go to a v8, but some of these guys put 800hp turbo v8s in them......you can do that easy with a stock v6 block.

This preview is all over the place. Sorry guys, but i enjoy these movies...
I went out riding a few months back out near soggy dry lake. When we passed the lakebed we saw a ton of cars. Cruised up and saw universal pictures stickers on the rigs. We knew exactly what it was once we saw that. They had 2 of each car out there. Unforunatly i did not see the the orange truck... they had another truck out there with stacks but it was a white beat up chevy...
If you watch int he previews you can see them racing along on the lake bed and even blowing stuff up right where some of our desert races are staged.

I always liked the Harley sound effects attached to dirtbikes, or the squealing tires on cars driving in the dirt.
Re-appearing hubcaps are a favorite too. They have a couple fall off during a chase, and they reappear when the car stops.

I like those stupid movies. :baby: Sometimes you just have to get away from reality.
I used to do a lot of cars for the movies and remember Cobra with Stallone. They had 6 '50 Mercury's and wrecked 5 of them. They were all bondoed pieces of shit except the real one which was only photographed parking. I enjoyed building those cars. The studio's give you a limited budget so if you want to make some money you improvise. That means no visits to Ken Duttweiller for the GN engine for this movie. Probably a 305 small block Chev with a cam and high speed camera work.

Duttweiller who
:rofl: Take it to Anderson:cool2:All understandable, but if your going to pick a car that came with a special motor...at least dub in the right sounds. That one movie with Steven Segal did a good job with making it sound like a GN, and that had to be close to 20 years ago. But then again back then the director prob cared more about the movie than how many trees got cut down last week:rofl:
:rofl::rofl: It all looks so fake:rofl: I like how the trailers tires don't seize once there is no air going to the brakes
didn't you see superman fly under there and cage the brake cans?:rofl:
You guys have to stop this shit and try to enjoy it.
Way back when Superman was on tv in the 50's there was always this scene in every episode where Superman would confront the bad guy and the bad guy would empty his gun into Superman and nothing happened. The bad guy being frustrated would then throw the gun at superman causing him to duck. WTF? :rofl:

You may not believe it, but this can be done on hard packed dirt with the right material-I have heard it, but definetly not the dirt on the Dukes of Hazzard!!
:laughing4::hehe:
All things aside, I will still rent it when it comes out or go see it at the movies. I like those movies, just neat to see some odd things they come up with.
