Default born to race subaru movie!

saw this film a while ago but dont think it was released in uk just wondered if anyone else has seen it? bit like fast and furious before it got stupid and went too far and without all the crap. its basically a white blobeye sti against a 2010 mustang shelby all the way through with a story thrown in. fair few other scoobys make appearences too watch it free on this link well worth a watch believe me http://www.putlocker.com/file/0E0ABDCA982D9615#

I saw it and didnt have high hopes but its not a bad watch. Rich kid vs hillbilly style, plenty of attention on the cars/driving etc. Only thing I felt was that the acting/production was a bit "channel 5" for me and the ending was a bit sucky.

i agree there mate the acting every now and then slips a bit but good film overall also the ending (not saying too much so doesn,t ruin it for others) could of been the other way around which would of been even worse lol

I agree with the channel 5 thing but they arent a-list actors. It didnt take away from the film tho and it was good entertainment. Might give it a 2nd watch

i enjoyed it, if it didnt have a scooby in there, i would have thought it was a poor copy of tokyo drift, but it did have a scooby so is my favourite movie next to f&f

Watched this this morning on netflix. Definitely worth a watch if you're bored over Christmas, even if it's just for the cars.

There was a bloke in 2011-12 we met at Aces Cafe and at JAPFEST was after some scoobies to make a film in the UK

Not sure what happened to him?? Maybe white coats LOL

Watched this last year on netflix!! At least the cars dont look OTT like fast and furious!! Pretty sure there was a nice grey Evo 8/9 at the beginning???

But you do notice when he in the scrap yard looking for a car to mod, he picks a bugeye WRX, and when they finish restoring the scoob, it finishes off a as a white STi

Loved Fast n Furious before it became an out and out heist genre.
1-4 epic.
