Great car chase in the Seven Ups.
Good chase on foot in Appocalipto.

French connection was great. Can't imagine what it took to get every body outa da way to film those scenes.

I like Bullet but seems like the attraction of the throaty sounding Mustang may be why it's liked so well. I think some of the chase scenes in the Jason Bourne movies are just as exciting.

Bullitt, Seven Ups, French Connection, All of those movies done with stunt drivers and not Computers. Hell even the scenes from street racing in American Graffiti and The Hollywood Knights are vastly superior than the video game crap we get these days.

That 68 Charger RT (440 not 426) kept running down the 390 Mustang GT so easy in that chase you can see it after you have watched it a few dozen times like I have!

Not sure if it's the greatest, but it was good.

Gumball Rally indeed. Own that one...the sound of the Cobra and the Ferrari echoing off of the buildings in New York are pretty freaking awesome.

Cannonball Runs were both silly but have some good car stuff in them and are still entertaining. Farrah Faucett dodging the proctologist exam from Jack Elam ect. Have to smile at that good Dr.

All three of those movies had Bill Hickman at the wheel of one of those cars.

Just something about Bullitt that speaks to me.

Bullitt, the reason i bought a 68 charger RT

Bill Hickman was truly the best. That smirk when he drops the hammer on the RT Blackie is just right.
