YESSS!!!!

It's even better because I work for my dad and he let's me watch car stuff at work(it's a tennis store) like Top Gear, Wheeler Dealers and Velocity, both my dad and I haven't seen it before and I've only seen the chase. Excellent time for father-son bonding at work. :)

I am almost 100% certain that the mustang understeering and skidding was not planned, but I'm so happy it happened. It's my favorite part of the chase.

I can never get to the car-chase because I get bored! It isn't a very interesting movie in my eyes. I've tried upwards of 5 times to get there.

The chase is fantastic. It's somewhat interesting, nowhere near as much as modern but I've got a thing for the classics.

OK. I am really going to date myself. (This is for you GameCat) I saw that movie as a real young lad when it came out. The Mustang was totally cool. The Charger, which was as much or more cool, IMO, had 375 HP vs. the 335 of the Mustang. They had to adjust the speeds of the two to match the performance. But it was the first truly 10+ minute chase scene that was pretty much for real.

That is simply awesome. If they had "behind the scenes" videos back then, I could only imagine how every car guy/gal would love to see it then and now. Are there any more movies with chase scenes like this?

QUESTION TIME!

1. How many times did the Beetle appear in the background of the chase?

2. How many hubcaps did the Charger loose?

Wha?......

1. I didn't know there was a Beetle at all?

2. I'm gonna guess and go with my Birthday number: 6

The Beetle is on here, it kept reappearing during the chase :)

Mainly parked, but just goes to show what a budget can do I presume.

The hubcap number is correct, Haha!

Ya know, I don't really know. But I will bet that some of the early Gand Prix, et al. had some stories to tell.
