LMAO, much like Terminator 2, with the Xr80/100, had a 2 stroke dub and also had about 42 gears :p

Yeah that was lolworthy.

On a semi-related note, I remember the pod race scene in star wars episode 1, I liked the way they matched the sounds to the perceived agility of the pods. Anakin had the whiney, high revving jap 4cylinder in his agile little gokartmobile, and the ugly thing had a massive single cylinder in the huge lumbering pod hehe.

i think the drag race in 2fast 2 furious (the one where the ricers beat the two american muscle cars) takes the cake for gear changes.

And here i am thinking that they ran roadranger gearboxes so they wouldnt notice the turbo lag in those little jap cars LOL
With all the mods they did to their cars they might have had two speed diffs and high and low range in their gearboxes.

I read all the post before I looked at the date stamp.

I was thinking "fark, what the hell am I watching, I swear its set in the 1920's , the Commodore wasn't even thought of then let alone mags from a different model "
