Probably Didn't Hit 88 MPH

Well because Florida... Why did this go so wrong? Maybe the driver mixed up his cult classics ( Vanishing Point v. BTTF ) and that’s why he chose a Challenger (still the wrong gen as pictured in tweet at bottom). Maybe he didn’t get enough speed to activate the flux capacitor (or natural selection). Maybe time travel is impossible... wait that can’t be true.

Whatever the reasons may be, I’m grateful I don’t live in Florida. Have this gif for the home of Disney World, bath salts, Donald Trump’s ridiculous home, and some of the most embarrassing professional sports franchises in the country.

Full stories below (hopefully this hasn’t been posted yet) and please discuss all things sci-fi cars, BTTF , and Florida.

I don’t know I think the Delorean is still appreciating in value while I only see the modern Challenger depreciating for the foreseeable future. From a long term financial standpoint the challenger was the right call. From an emotional standpoint he should have used a hellcat or a pinto for tire smoke or explosions...

at least they can’t get him for tax evasion!

If KITT nails a building, the building collapses, and KITT doesn’t even have a scratch.

But a DeLorean can do it. Haven’t you ever seen the documentary Back to the Future?

He was so close to putting the final nail in his casket.

*this is the official situational pun thread*

It had to be a casket company - the only businesses that could have been more stereotypically Floridian would be maybe a hearing aid store or a golf cart dealership.

Orlando City Soccer or GTFO.

Probably better to deal with the murders or cow tipping where you live.

I was more thinking that the majority of the big 4 sports teams are a joke (which they somehow have multiple of each)

I’m not sure if it’s the Latin American influence, or just the fact that the team is pretty good, but OCSC has become a huge draw in Central FL. With the exception of soccer, most people don’t give a hoot about pro sports here. It's all about college football.

My wife is originally from Massachusetts, but she did drive through the front window of a coffee shop once, officially marking her FL citizenship. No Flakka was involved.
