#1: Crappy movie, GREAT scene... Author: JG300-Ascout, Location: CyberspacePosted: Tue Sep 02, 2008 6:26 pm ---- Setup: Contract killer who has "flair". "Harry Heck" is Mark Collie, CW ar-teest. He shoulda' been tapped for "Walk the Line" as Johnny Cash (assuming he coulda' stayed sober long enough). Shoulda' won an Oscar for "best scene in an otherwise awful film" category.....

*(even if the 'Stang and the GTO cut their wheels outside of the flagman at the launch. "Ascout" would never do that. )

COOL tune and a little "Dead Man's Curve" inspiration in the storyline ("never saw them again")....but a ducktail spoiler on that sweet little '65 Fastback? Dang Rednecks!!!
Thank'ee!!!!

'68 Plymouth Satellite Sport VISMOD'ed to resemble a Road Runner.
'course, in real life, the GTO would have eaten the 'Stang's lunch off the line, but in a road race, with any suspension at all, the Hardin County Line woulda' come up first for the 'Stang.

And yep my money would be with that lightweight 'Stang with the Hi-Po 289 too on a good ol' fashioned backroad race!
