ya its just like a murder/gore flick, it can be linked to real life cases.

this movie is actually good for real tuners like us, ppl buy more parts and bring the demand up and we get more companies to put in r&d hours for more and better parts.

i mean sure it will increase the amount of rice but if we keep rice bashing then ppl will get a clue. or just make a law to outlaw fart cans lol.

yes it will make cops even more ---- but if you are careful most ---- can be avoided. overall i dont mind it, and btw i dont encourage big wings and altezza's.

i agree that you cant blame it on the movie, even if it happens to be on the night of release. using that kind of logic can lead to tons of useless controversy. maybe media as a whole is more to blame than just one import movie..

to sum it all up, use common sense. I mean come on. Oh and Holly, the "racer" did live, the other guy died. When the cops questioned him he said he was imitating F&F. So ------' messed up. I live by a theatre, and actually the main street I live right next to, people speed like hell, even the COPS! (the police station is nearby also). So I drive a little more careful cause of these dumb *****. I woulda thought that these "races" that are generated from these idiots, would occur at night, but I guess this guy proved me wrong. He's just extra dumb. Shish...

Yeah, I guess the movie does bring stuff like this on, but in the last few days it seems like the media is screaming a little too much 2f2f at fault for every little fender bender reported. I just wish we wouldn't have to defend ourselves so much just because a movie about riceboys came out.

You said the guy was racing himself... thats not a race it sounds like he was just speeding and couldn't handle his car.

Sorry, just had to spit that out. $.02 entered.

for one thing a car that can't handle at 80mph doesn't need to be on the street to begin with.

and I think everyone can agree with Beerbong.

Ah he's just stupid, I think his feet were racing each other, he wanted to know which one was faster. I think he was "racing" other traffic, and couldn't stop in time, or was driving on the opposite side of the road, cause he did hit the camry head on. Yeah it could be speeding but, when I'm sleeping and have to drive home on the fwy, I pretend I'm "racing" other traffic. I'm not doing any crazy speeds (mostly 80 which is normal around here, and where ever too i guess). I just try to keep ahead of a selected car try to not fall behind him/her. Eh.. kinda dumb I know but it sure beats the hell outta falling asleep at the wheel at 80mph.

I guess whats done is done.....people can sit and deliberate about it (I see it all the time on other boards.....the threads about 2f2f causing accidents/stupidity is amazing, lol) but its not gonna bring that dude back to life, or make the driver ('racer") look any different. I hope he pays for what he did.
