Audis and Iron Man Movie

[jimbon88 at aol.com]

Agreed.? I think using stunt cars in movies only really thrills the people without any mechanical knowledge because they don't see through the impossiblilities of making equipment do what they do.
I am a bit skeptical about their claim that they couldn't disable the anti-lock brakes.
Couldn't their "veteran" stunt people just plumb the hydraulic brake lines past the anti-lock actuator under the hood or is this too simple?
Did you also catch how just the rear wheels were burning rubber on the Q7's getaway?
I wonder how they accomplished that on a quattro??? Cut the front driveshafts?
It's all great fun to watch though.
Regards,
Jim

I guess AUDI marketing people are targeting future owners without any
mechanical knowledge at all. But then again how many of today's drivers
now anything about it????

Take care
