Why was there no good car scenes?


No great burn outs, killer jumps, hauling azz? There was a few lame jumps where the car nose dived into the pavement.

I could have swallowed the elephant with some burnin' rubber!!

Because that year of Trans Am was a complete dog compared to the '77 one they used in the first film. Down on power and handled like a total bag of sh_it.

No muscle car should ever need a turbo. Ever.

I watch the two jumps they do in slow-mo to see how much damage the car took. The first one over the trailer looks like it didn't *beep* it up too bad, but it had to at least bend the frame

Turbo just makes a car faster, regardless of engine size
