The only realistic part of Driven was where at a CART race debris flew into a crowd, killing people.

Remember that bit in Days of Thunder where it explains that in NASCAR when there is an accident rather than slow and perhaps try to minimize the injury to your fellow racers, you should change gears 4 times and just loving floor it into the rising smoke cloud and either come out the other side a hero or Zanardi every poor oval office in there

Remember the part when Gugelmin (I think) lands in the Harbor at Belle Isle? Although, personally I don't think CART's safety record was too bad all things considered. Well aside from 1999 of course.

Honda's racing engines may be a joke but lay off the small power equipment. I worked in a factory for gas-powered water pumps, bench testing 40-50 units a day for three years and so help me god, every single GX-series engine I ever laid hands on started on the first pull.

Tony Montana posted:https://www.jamesallenonf1.com/2017/05/pirelli-boss-hits-back-at-toto-wolffs-italian-mystery-line-after-monaco-f1-defeat/ Surely I'm not the only one who remembers the Merc as being the Trulli Of Cars? Fast qualifying, then tyres degraded faster than everyone else. Then they had that extended tyre test for Pirelli after one of the races and became almost unbeatable for the next few years. And Ferrari called bullshit but it turned out Ferrari had been offered and said 'gently caress you, we aren't helping you with your tyre experiment on our own dime' E: this one http://m.bbc.com/sport/formula1/22999260 simplefish fucked around with this message at 08:05 on Jun 5, 2017 |

I rather suspect it was the cheating with the using oil as fuel thing rather than one tyre test. I wonder what happened with Toto and Paddy? It seems odd that he goes to Williams, suddenly there is an explanation as to why the Mercades works team were so much quicker than customer teams with identical engines, and Williams goes completely to poo poo in 2017.

How did they manage to fasten their 5-point harnesses by themselves? 3. How did Stallone's pointy crocodile shoes fit inside that foot well? 4. How many glowing metal sparks can Stallone possibly drive through without going blind? I'm having an aneurysm here JFC

That was a fantastic film and I still love it even today Definitely worth a watch. If you like seeing 90s GT cars and Jackie Chan fight scenes, go find it. If you want a deep story, look elsewhere.

I remember watching the special effects feature for Driven, and the Max Papis crash they filmed where the car launches up and over another car and gets airborn wasn't cgi.... and they miscalculated it, and the car went much further than they expected. Also, Driven was the best because it has a cameo from Montoya in it!
