Found this on Youtube and thought you might like it. I watched it on Thursday. It was like a Fast and Furious for car people.

Are you saying Fast and Furious isn't for car people? Because if so I'd like to give you a fist bump.

If I remember right.... No, it's like Fast and Furious had 1/10th the budget. Also, they made a sequel, which looks worse.

I spent two hours laughing at this film with a few non-car-enthusiast friends (who are big fans of B-movies). It's not bad , but it's hilariously cheesy and extremely badly-acted.

That being said, unlike F&F, it shows more mid-western/central US street racing (although they don't ever specify 'drag' racing from 'real' racing I think...) than the more corner-intensive coastal racing that was in F&F.

In the face.

With a board.

Just watched this a bit ago as well. I hated it. Just bad period.

I think you're being a little harsh on BTR. While far from perfect, it was entertaining, had a good selection of cars, and the filmmakers made a serious attempt to keep all the car stuff somewhat realistic. It's far better than "200mph" or any of those.
