Ding, ding, ding ... Zacho wins! It was indeed 200MPH.
Oops! I intended to put the name in the thread title initially ... Evidently I changed my mind (or my mind changed itself)
You know, I CAN understand the idea of making I movie on a budget for a niche market. You spend a few million, have a diverse cast, and hope the every tuner car guy drags someone with them to see it and maybe buys the DVD. You spend 5M shooting, promoting and distributing, then hope to bring in 10M (and are happy when it does 6 or 7) ... This makes sense, it is simple business. The trouble is that if you are targeting a small, informed, market ... You had better be as informed as your average audience member ... This means getting a lot (not even all) of medium details right. It means not treating your audience as if they are stupid or completely uninformed.
If I drank, I suppose 200MPH could be a good drinking game .... Nah, anything you picked would have you so plastered by halfway through that it would just be a sad experience.
