What are some good car racing movies? They don't have to have 370z's in them or anything, but thatd be a plus lol. I'm talking about movies like fast and furious. I'm sure you guys have seen some good ones that make you wanna get out and drive fast.

gone in 60 seconds, both the original and the nick cage remake. The original one didn't have much story, half of it was just one chase

mmmmm...Gone in 60 Seconds is a cool movie.

Bullit is a classic car movie but really boring.

also,in this section.....spyshots are kinda over now with the Z's

I enjoyed the first "The Fast and the Furious" movie. And not so much racing but still car related, I really loved "Christine".....I can just close my eyes and hear the theme when the car is about to kill!

^ lol, great minds ...

There were three bandit movies, but snowman played the roll of the bandit in the 3rd movie. and he got caught, although the sheriff let him go if I remember right, because the sheriff knew if the bandit was caught, he would have to go back to his wife.

If I'm reading about the right one:

Officially it's the Burt Reynolds Edition Trans Am built by Year One, the restoration parts company based in Georgia. And officially it's one of a limited production run that could be up to 50 cars — if, that is, there are 50 people willing to pay for a ripped version of the '78 Trans Am. Year One has supplied parts for The Fast and The Furious series since the second installment, so it's no surprise to see that relationship continue into the fourth film.

But it's what's underneath the exaggerated and iconic appearance that gives the car substance. The chassis is thoroughly updated with tubular A-arms on the front suspension, oversize Baer Racing brakes all around and a 550-horsepower, 7.0-liter GM LS-7 crate motor under the hood. That's right, it's Corvette Z06 powered.
