eddyramrod Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 A 1989 Prelude should have been able to show a 1969 MGB a cloud of dust! Fun though, well found. Sudsprint 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The director George Miller did some seriously new stuff with that film, fitting the cameras to unusual places in the cars making some very ‘close’ action shots.... The first ten minutes of this film might be the best petrol head chase of all time. And I’ll argue that with anyone, come at me. toecutter ... was the head baddie in Fury Road https://madmax.fandom.com/wiki/Toecutter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a status symbol thing - not in 'cool' as much as 'I can'. Which is why mobster (Yakuza etc) cars tend to be LHD. If you see a LHD prestige car with the occupants in suits, you'll notice that other cars get out of the way. When I was in Tokyo they stood out to me... except being a typical gaijin tourist, I gawped. Not clever 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder if he was going to pull in at the end too and have a bit of a straightener with the DBS driver, then thought better of it when he realised there were 3 cars traveling together.

EML Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 ^ That car chase is great, the Fiat fixes itself a couple of times, and the VW k70 totally changes shape whilst in a roll. 10/10 Will watch again Austat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddyramrod Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Well... that was fun! When the original clip ended, it offered me some more, and top left showed a car remarkably like Huggy, flying, so I watched it, with the sound on. Speed Trap (1977) appears to be a movie about, well, someone who interferes in police chases. There are 24 minutes of this stuff, clearly edited highlights so you don't get any context and almost no dialogue, but Starring... credits flash up for Joe Don Baker and Tyne Daly, which would be enough to make me watch anyway. JDB drives a selection of cars with which he baits the black-and-white police Dodge Coronets, starting with an English-registered RHD Jensen Interceptor. Not one but two Cadillac Eldorados also appear, both about 1972-3, one of which is the car I mistook (in an action shot) for mine. @Austat thank you for that!

bezzabsa Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 not so much a chase, but does anyone remember a Bloke filming himself crossing Paris in a BMW (i think) bumper mounted camera..Proper "as was" action, no cuts and no stunts...think it was early 80's?????
