Most of The Fast & The Furious Dom Toretto’s 1970 Dodge Charger scenes. I do not own anything in these clips, these are for entertainment purposes only
My dad worked too much to really ever sit with me and watch a movie. And the few times he did, I could tell he just did it for me. This car, this scene...I never saw my old man's eyes light up more. That's when he finally pulled out an old photo album and showed me evidence of his life as a street racer with a blown 72 Nova
I’ve had a someone relatable story, my dad always liked muscle cars and he one told me he used to drag his old 70’s challenger when he was younger. That’s how I got into cars.
@@mattiacesaretto5710 for sure bro. Ever seen Ford V Ferrari? The part where Henry Ford II goes on a test drive in the GT40. My pop's has been gone for a long time, and I've driven some powerful cars since then. That scene hits me like a damn freight train bro
This was the last movie my old man and I watched together in theaters, just the two of us. He only went to three movies with me, and I still remember him laughing his arse off in happiness during several points in the film. However, he gently smiled when he saw the Charger. Told me he used to beat the pants off of them back in the day with his '64 Chevelle, during a couple of street races. Rest in peace, Dad.
They did a really good job at emphezising how incredible of a machine Dom's '70 Charger was. Dom was only going 80%-90% which is evident when he suddenly pulls ahead of Brian at 2:29 and Brian needed to put 110% just to keep up.
Lol!! Yeah, cuz you would NEVER go full throttle when drag racing unless you really have to 😂😂😂 The fact that he blows a hole in the block, and GAINS more speed 🤣🤣 These movies need to stop. They crack me up.
When you remember how he was afraid and decided to get in the charger we all were shocked by the engine start it sounds like hell itself were free that was the hell demon before dodge even had the demon
Dom's ol' shade tree mechanic skills nearly got him killed. Important reminder why a Mopar certified mechanic using only Mopar certified parts is the safest and only option.
This is absolutely the best version of the Charger.. Those American Racing CL200s and the chrome grille makes it look so goddamned mean with the (fake) blower
The stunt car for the crash has a fake blower The scenes of it in the garage and Dom cranking it and driving around in it… The blower was active… It was a blown 426 hemi… And the stunt car that was wrecked had a 350 Chevrolet in it with a fake blower
@@slicksonrevolver9618Not true. The garage scene was a 1957 392 Hemi bored and stroked to 445 cubic inches. The car was never fired up with that engine. It was loaned to them for that scene and that scene only. The rest of the time it had either a 383 or a 440 in it with a fake blower. Spending the money to use a legit 426 Hemi for a car you're just going to trash is absolutely pointless. Craig Lieberman has a video on it.
@@colinm8191 In an intense race, you don't take your foot off the gas, you keep your foot planted while shifting gears, the engine will bounce off the rev limiter while you're changing gear and once you're in the next gear, you drop the clutch immediately. That way the clutch brings down the RPM of the engine for the next gear while giving you a little boost from the momentum of the engine. It's called powershifting, it's not good for the clutch but it is faster.
