Jason Preistly was a good driver.

Also, Stars DON'T drive the cars in the movies. Not ever. It's such a huge insurance liability to act and drive at the same time, that they never drive, ever. Sorry.

well everyone here is an expert in everything and also works in the movie industry... hhmm I feel stupid, I better call superstreet and ask them why the wrote that fake article..

**CaysE** · 02-06-2008, 01:16 PM

He DOES work in the movie industry.

**polarisman14** · 02-06-2008, 01:46 PM

I like these movies. They inspire me to make something which only shares the fact that it's a car with the cars in this movie. Just watched FATF 3 and I'm all psyched to work on my car this/next weekend.

No offense dude but your talking completely out of your arse......

Yes, MOST of the time stars don't touch the cars but with more and more people demanding to see stars actually doing their own stunts you see more and more stars actually driving and doing stunts.

Your talking a big game but you probably never took the time to watch the behind the scenes on any of the F&F movies to see all the track time and training most of the actors all did for the movie's. In part two, Paul Walker ended up eventually bending a rim and control arm on a Skyline doing slides through a corner for a shot that ended with him looking into the camera.

While they were shooting here in Miami i got to see alot of the filming and behind the scenes from the news station I worked for. There were scenes everyday where the stars would be driving down the highway at speed shooting through traffic. Anything that was short of actually doing something completely crazy the main actors actually drove.

So before you talk more stuff out of your arse next time actually watch some behind the scenes to see how much driver alot of actors today actually do.

**jmotank** · 02-07-2008, 05:57 AM

^ wow, i was gonna say something similar. it's not a secret that stars do drive the cars at time and train for it. dude must be living in a box or something to think they don't. LOL

**hotrodkris** · 02-07-2008, 01:40 PM

I know people who owned the cars in the original movie. The actors THRASHED the cars. The 'non-stunt' cars. Of course the studio paid to have them 'restored' to their previous glory, but still. And they did well w/ the cars once the movie was done - Lieberman financed his Skyline w/ the sale of his orange Supra.

Not that I would want to defend this movie, but didn't Rhys Millen do a lot of the scenes in Tokyo Drift..................I'm pretty sure he could hand you your a$$ Jinstall.

Oh wait you are the self proclaimed mast of the 'Ring right??

I stood next to Rhys Millen for about 30 minutes while he was shooting interviews for Redline. I knew he looked familiar, but I was too busy paying attention to what the interview was actually about to realize who it was
