That amount of rock coming out of the trailer and before it came back down was a little over the top.

Yep. The truely fake part is the fact that the SRT-10 Viper is still in the mid-rear of the pack, when in reality it would have been there and back by the time the Saleen got squished.

I agree, the order in which the cars arrived at that impound lot was backwards. The Eclipse and Evolution were beating a Viper SRT-10, Saleen 281-S, Corvette, Yenko S/C Camaro 427, HEMI Challenger R/T, and an M3. There is no way those two cars beat all those others to the impound lot. To further prove my point, later in the movie the Eclipse and Evolution had to cheat to beat the Camaro and Challenger in the relay race.

And don't forget that the lancer had the biggest and longest nitrous shot that I have ever seen. It had to add at least 800+ hp and last the entire time to make up that kind of distance that fast.[sm=smiley36.gif]

You guys wont be making fun of the Lancer/EVO for long... especially when Dodge is going to be building the next gen Neon on that platform! lol.
