Where's Vanishing Point? Kowalski rules!

It's also missing the original Gone in 60 Seconds and Smokey and the Bandit. Also Magnum Force had a great chase scene near the end of the movie through San Fransisco... and what about McQ... That was a John Wayne movie where he drove a dark green HO firebird that he called the green hornet. There was a cool chase in that movie.

If just taken as one scene I'd have to give it to Bullitt. But Ronin had 2 other cool chase scenes and as a whole was far better. I gotta give it to Ronin.

i was thinking theres no gone in 60 seconds(orig) no vanishing point, but he ran the whole movie so. I like the remake better then the original, but they are both good

Either the original or the remake of Gone in 60 Seconds, maybe some of the driving in the Fast and Furious movies:flame:

BUT I like the car in the remake. Original was badass but C'mon, it's Eleanore

Bullitt makes Gone in 60 Seconds look like girlie stuff.Plus,you really can't beat the '68 Charger R/T with a 440 and the 390 Mustang.Gritty,just the way it should be.When the seatbelt clicked,you knew "It" was on.

Ever hear those "stories" of how they had to slow the stang down, just so it wouldn't outrun the charger? :beatyoass:

Eleanor is overdone. But 71-83 Mustangs sucked, so I hate the original. Might as well have put an 05 Stang in it, cuz my opinion on those is the same. You cant beat older movies, new age car chases are kinda dumb. About the only good "chase" part in a newer movie is in 2Fast 2Furious when they have the scramble near the end. Or the first one where they are chasing the guys on the Dirt Bikes. Nothing beats a 440 Charger with a Birdcatcher.

I must disagree as gone in sixty seconds actually has somewhat of a plot (depending on which make you happen to be talking about). Bullit had Steve Mcqueen who sucks gorilla balls.

Actually you've got it backwards. That 390 stang couldnt touch that 440 charger.

Right.The 440 Charger spanked the Stang.It may hurt to know that,but it's true.Mopars had some wicked strong cars.

I liked the Blues Brothers. At least they're realistic. ;) So, slamming the brakes in reverse will give you a 50' backward somersault. Good to know.

Really, the French Connection one was ballsy! 7-ups (neither of which I have seen) was wild too.

Only in the straight shots.  The Charger was a boat.  Mustang could have kept up in the streets of San Fran.

Bullit (Who doesn't love a 16 gear car?:D )
Bourne- Little cars racing are funny.
Dukes of Hazzard- Don't ask.

was a feeble attempt at sarcasm lol ;)
had a Stang banger buddy always told me that they had to mod up the charger to keep ahead of the GT....lol..no way a 390 would touch a 440 in stock trim :flame:
