The SRC series is compulsory viewing for anyone on the car scene, especially if you're involved with the US scene at all. Most amusing.

cheers

Where is full long version? :P

Streetracing chronicles is real gem, I have fallen from chari because of laughing, some things just hit the spot :P

There is few really nice clips that makes me laugh without control, those chronicles are one, then is this one below, old but so good, always need to watch it again :lol:

Btw, does anyone knows where to find better versions from clips used in this?

Specially that stuff at near end of movie is quite worth of searching, I have only on clip of that style and it has bad quality too, however it still is damn scary...

Yeah theyre called "touge's" which is where drifting originated from, I still haven't seen the whole of the initial-d film, anyone been to see F+F3 yet? Was really disappointing I thought, not in that the drifting was unrealistic (which it was and expected to be) but that there wasn't really much of a storyline and I came out not knowing a single character name!

Good video showing touge drifting... http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... t+motoring

This is that live movie I saw, that is dubbed version and that spoils lot from it, part 1 first then part 2 and so on.

Here is animation, this first stage is best of them

Act1 is first episode, then in order part 1 to 3 then act 2 part 1 to 3 and so on, not need to care other stuff that comes with search :P

Fast and Furios is s*it, there is nothing realistic in them, there is no storyline, I just get annoyed how everything is wrong in those, manifold explodes and car floor comes off, right that is how it happen, sure it is ROFL

Haha I just found this video and was about to post it, its Sid, first time we've seen show girls on a 300! He's got a 16v going in soon too, not bad in the dry though considering the only mods are lowering and welded diff (1.7 btw)
