    Yeah, I have heard that pretty much EVERY big jump killed a charger. Yikes!

      One thing about moving to CO, I couldn't believe how many old cars are out here. I've seen countless classic Mustangs in top condition.

      Also, I happened to stumble across "Dukes" on imdb a few weeks ago. Pics of Jessica Simpson as Daisy Duke.

        Now that I've seen the movie trailer, I'm positive its a Bluescreen job.
        The roundabout scene is with a Police car chasing close behind the General. In the clip, there is no Police car.

        If the Police car is CGI or Bluescreened in, I can't see why anyone would risk an accident and a 69 Charger when they could just bluescreen it same as the cop car.

        Oh, and there is a really obvious continuity error in the trailer :

        The 0 on the General's doors is kinda octagonal, except for one of the opening jump scenes where its perfectly circular.

          The trailer could simply use different shot. Similar with continuity - they have many cars, and trailer is sequence of many different scenes.

            Or it was a take, and they used a retake for the final shot... or just for the trailer.

            Nothing about this indicates that it's bluescreened, except some people's doubt of the ability of stunt drivers. LOL.

                Huh? What does that have to do with it?

                Besides, I'd rather have someone that grew up with RWD driving that car.

                  Both of our cars are RWD Japanese cars.

                    You really don't know what's one of the most popular racing sports in Japan, do you?

                    edit: I don't remember the name so i won't link it, BUT: imagine this particular sport (probably unknown to you, but the images should be self describing) with cars instead of motorbikes and asphalt instead of mud (and little more variety than going in circles)

                        I understand, but I don't think that anything Japanese would drive like a vintage American muscle car.

                          I was reffering specifically to the driver, not the car?

                            *sigh*

                            Wombat, let me spell it out for you.

                            Drift racing is a GIGANTIC hit sport in Japan. God only knows WHY, but the Japanese are EXTREMELY excited to watch two idiots weave their way around a track without maintaining lateral traction AT ALL.

                            It's extremely funny, and they're MASTERS of it. Much like Zen and Kung-fu.
