2Fast/2Furious was on TV recently, and I watched most of it. I noticed they had a video screen on the one car the cop-guy was driving? Action went too fast to get a good look.

Did anybody get a good look at what all there was on those cars?

thx

Probably movie magic, nothing special. Could be an LCD screen hooked up to a stand alone engine manegement system. Honestly, even if it was, I wouldn't want that kind of distraction on my dashboard while I drive.

The first shot of the dash was in the beginning race thing. Thre girl with the pink convertable (Suki) had a monitor that has a characature of herself with her name (real useful while racing).

There was a shot of the screen with some bargraphs showing engine stats while the forked thing- ESD, "Electrical System Disabler" was zapping the car (helicopter chase scene near the end).

I was too busy looking at Suki, and the cars, to be bothered by LCD screens showing fake technical readings of vague acronyms for things that dont exist !

With all that extra junk (screens, neon lights under the car) how do they manage to go fast any way? Movie special effects?

Man, don't you know anything? It's cuz of tha NAWS dude

And those neons add at least 200Hp per light. Those are like the fastest cars EVER!

Just movie crap. Some CG company gets paid to make a video they can play on the screen to make it look like somethings happening. Same as in movies when the actor is using a computer. The randomly press buttons on the keyboard, never press enter, and the the screen keeps changing like they are actually going something. Swordfish is a good example of how crap and unrealistic it looks.

Swordfish was brilliant! One of the best comedy flicks I've seen. The Tuscan was to die for too

If those ricers were so fast, how come they couldn't beat the Camaros?

Are you serious?

Personally, I hated the fast and the furious movies, I thought they were horrible. Just my opinion. Swordfish on the other hand, I thought was a great film
