Could have been better if he grabbed some doughnuts at the doughnut shop he did doughnuts around, and gave them to the cops blocking the road :D

i was waiting for this to happen...slo mo shot of guy handing donuts out the shop window, then a slo mo handoff to the guys blocking traffic.


either way...i want to drive that thing just once...
 
I was waiting for him to grab donuts also.
 
The doughnut shop was a Wayne's world reference. And the storm drain thing was a grease cameo. All he was missing was the semi chase from terminator and that would have made it 100x better. It was still f'ing insane though.
 
That thing's insane. I wish I could thrash a vehicle within an inch of its life on the streets of LA.hasta It's not a horse its a Mustang :spin1:


I wish i had a vehicle i had that level of confidence in to thrash that hard.

I want to see what makes it tick, i bet the whole driveline is a work of art.
 
am I the only guy that thinks it's assholish to block streets in a major city to make an internet video?

not really any different than blocking them off to make a movie.

I would assume they blocked it off each scene at a time and probably only for about what an hour to make a 10 second clip. then figure they probably did that in the middle of the week, in the afternoon, over a couple days. I think they had it under control.
 
I want to know if that video was done in one shot?

How many preruns they did?

How many sets of tires were involved?

mac 'then like doug, see the drivetrain' gyvr
 
One more question.

How many police cars did they hit?

mac 'inquiring minds' gyvr

Im ok with that. Dont block city streets for a freaking marathon though. The buddys race for the cure blocked off half of down town on a weekday. Sat for 20 minutes in the work van while people walked by so they could get their 13.1 sticker..... Thats assholish.

Now if i sat there waiting for an 800+ hp mustang to swing by it wouldve been much better. Besides its la, im sure streets get blocked for shit all the time
 
You're just hard to please apparently...
yes, I'm an asshole.
