I think he's meaning shorter videos, but if not, then Running On Empty is supposed to be good.
Gone in 60 seconds old version is hilarious, but not that great.

Have you already seen the Getaway in Stockholm movies? And the Ghostrider movies?

There is a guy called Mull that made a heap of organised illegal street racing as well as legal drag racing movies from Stockholm. His website was http://mull.tk, not sure if it is still there?

For sure, I've got Ghostrider Goes Wild (insane, just to see how fast he goes through traffic), and the recently-released Ghostrider Goes Undercover (not as good, gets persued by slow police officers). I've also seen all the Getaway In Stockholm's and can also recommend them, in particular No. 5 with the RX-7 turbo.

You've also got video magazines like Top Gear, a British car show with a pompous host, and Best Motoring International, a Japanese car show that mainly covers imports.

Oh hey, Getaway In Stockholm 6 is out, judging by the trailers it'll be better than the past five

I think the XYs had long since left the factory by 1982.

There are a couple of good Street racing movie's called "2 fast 2 Furious for Hollywood" 1 & 2, All filmed in New York and they take street racing to a new level with plenty of big horsepower muscle cars to drool over, these guys pull the Parachutes on the street. I think some Autobarns sell them.

Cheers
Dean.

They look like pretty good movies, though they are actually called 2 Fast 2 Real ;)

I have to agree with you there, I picked it up on DVD after hearing my old man raving about how good it was. It's very crazy but I love that car.
