    Pro Driver Breaks Down More Driving Scenes From Film & TV

    Wyatt Knox, Special Projects Director at the Team O'Neil Rally School, takes a look at some more driving scenes from television and film and breaks down how accurate they really are. Does an all-wheel drive car like the one featured in Baby Driver really have an advantage over front or rear-wheel drive cars? Do the horsepower numbers from the car pulling scene in The Fate of the Furious really add up? Are Talladega Nights' drafting scenes true to real NASCAR?

    Transcript

    We got a bug coming up. [engine revving]

    [glass shattering] [woman screaming]

    If Kenevil can do it, so can I.

    Hi, my names Wyatt Knox.

    [bell dinging]

    [Narrator] Wyatt Knox is an American Rally Champion.

    And today, I'm breaking down more clips

    from movies and TV about driving.

    All wheel drive car control, Baby Driver.

    [upbeat rock music] [tires squealing]

    [engine revving]

    [tires squealing] [siren wailing]

    [brakes squealing]

    [car honking] [siren wailing]

    [car smashing] [car crunching]

    So an all wheel drive, turbo charged car

    is gonna have a distinct advantage

    over a two wheel drive car.

    Whether you have a front wheel drive car

    or a rear wheel drive car, you need to put all of your power

    through those wheels in order to get traction and go.

    Where an all wheel drive car

    with all wheels driven, you can have more power

    a turbo charged engine like this,

    and put a lot of power down and get actual acceleration

    instead of just wheel spin.

    [siren wailing] ♪shes got them ♪

    ♪blues explosion♪ [siren wailing]

    [horn honking] [tires squealing]

    [Passenger] whoa! [tires squealing]

    It's also really nice to see that they got

    a lot of the kind of clips to foot and hands

    and things inside the car pretty spot-on in this.

    I mean the driving is highly exaggerated.

    If you were running away from a bank robbery

    you're not just gonna be chucking it this sideways

    but for the sake of what it is, it's on point.

    Corkscrew jump, The Man With the Golden Gun.

    You're not thinking of...

    I sure am boy. [tires screeching]

    [driver] I know how to Evel Knievel

    [slide whistle up] [slide whistle down]

    [screaming]

    so this jump believe it or not is completely legit.

    So it looks here that the driver kind of takes off

    and goes right off this jump

    I'm sure there was a longer run up

    and the driver had a little bit of time to get up to speed,

    find a steady speed and then really just accelerate

    smoothly off of it.

    It was really well-planned out as far as

    the curvature of things, the distance and the

    calculated speed.

    They actually slow the clip down a little bit for the movie

    just because it happened so fast in real time.

    [slide whistle up]

    Add a little slide whistle over it and it's good to go.

    I've never done that before!

    Neither have I actually.

    Car chase through San Francisco, Bullet.

    [tires screeching] [engine revving]

    [car crunching] [tires squealing]

    So thing about San Francisco as a driver

    you've got these steep uphills, steep downhills

    big off-cambered corners and obviously the jumps that

    make this car chase so famous.

    This scene's legendary and I don't have

    too much bad to say about it.

    The one thing you will notice is

    the little green Volkswagen.

    Need some information.

    They go by that Beetle at least four times

    in this car chase.

    Other than that fantastic driving really good stuff.

    [engine roaring]

    There's the green Volkswagen. [engine accelerating]

    There's the green Volkswagen.

    There's the green Volkswagen.

    There's the green Volkswagen.

    Right?

    Its the only thing I have bad to say about the whole chase.

    Pit maneuver, Fast and Furious.

    [engines revving]

    [car hits car] [tires squealing]

    In any sort of normal form of motor sport

    this would be taking your license away

    and you'd be black flagged forever.

    Can't be good for business.

    Yeah well that depends on how you look at things.

    [tires squealing]

    Essentially a pit maneuver is when you

    hit the rear quarter panel of another car with

    the intention of spinning them out and around

    and crashing them so you can keep going.

    [tires squealing] [engine revving]

    No!

    It's definitely something to be avoided.

    It's not that big a danger crashing and going

    off the road but what you'll see is

    especially your front fenders bend in

    and get bound up on those tires real easily

    and then you're just giving yourself a flat tire

    and giving yourself a lot of problems down the road.

    You're a lucky man.

    How's that?

    You're still breathing.

    You're a lot better off just driving faster

    but you know illegal street racing is what it is.

    Slingshot, Talladega Nights.

    ♪ Ride out of the sunset♪ Come on man slingshot it!

    Shake and bake buddy!

    Slingshot engage.

    [engine revving] ♪'cause I'm TNT, I'm dynamite♪

    [Narrator] Here's something, a rival driver pass a teammate

    In order to understand drafting it's easy to

    think about one car traveling through the air.

    The resistance of pushing through all that air

    at the front of the car but then also at the back.

    If you have two or three cars on the same team out there

    you can do a lot to help each other out using

    that drafting phenomena.

    It's just exciting we're trying things like that.

    Yeah.

    So the slingshot move, there's two ways to do it.

    The way that they do it here the two cars line up,

    both of those cars are now gaining a bit of an advantage

    on that lead car.

    I'm not sure what to do with my hands.

    As the two cars approach the lead car,

    the rear car comes out and has a bit of a burst of speed

    for a moment to try and overtake that lead car.

    We're real happy with what was goin' on.

    What's also very common in Nascar is when you get three

    cars close together, that lead car has a lot of drag

    on the front and the rear car has a lot of drag on the back

    but that middle car is sort of just in

    the slipstream for a second.

    That's gonna give him a really good potential

    for acceleration for a moment and

    if they capitalize on that you can get that pass

    where you might not be able otherwise to have

    the horsepower to do so.

    Shake it before you bake it!

    Handbrake turn, Die Hard with a Vengeance.

    Hang the [beep]

    on all right? [rapid gunfire]

    [tires squealing] [gunfire]

    [glass shattering] [gunfire]

    [car crashing]

    I mean it's pretty good, it's conceivable that

    with enough speed if you did a handbrake turn

    on a wet paved road like that you could get the car

    to do a 360.

    Yippie ki-yay

    I'm no expert on you know shooting out the window

    lefthanded while you're trying to pull it off

    but you would definitely want to get rid of

    any ABS, stability control, traction control

    and that kind of stuff.

    If you tried that in a modern car with the ABS

    still active and that kind of thing,

    it's just not gonna work.

    What the [beep]

    happened?

    You got a AAA card?

    Handbrake turn, Vacation.

    Hang on! [handbrake clicks]

    [tires squeal] [car crashing]

    [screaming] [car crashing]

    Alright so this is computer generated

    but it does depict a pretty real scenario.

    So this is the Fast and Furious syndrome.

    If Vin Diesel can do it, so can I.

    Why are you as good as Vin Diesel?

    Things that are exaggerated through movies give people

    a little bit of the wrong idea on what works and

    what doesn't.

    [handbrake clicks] [tires screech]

    [car crashing]

    so in a sports car or a rally car or something

    kind of low long and wide, you get away with

    sliding around and chucking it sideways

    and doing handbrake turns and things like that.

    In anything that's a little bit narrower

    and a little bit taller you've got a much

    higher center of gravity that you're risk of rollover

    is much much higher.

    That's not what I was trying to do.

    Off road driving, The Dukes of Hazzard.

    [engine revving] [car crashing]

    [gravel sliding]

    [water splashing] [engine revving]

    [tires squealing] [engine revving]

    High speed driving on some of these rougher surfaces

    like what they're doing here with the old Charger.

    [engine revving] [water splashing]

    [gravel sliding] [tires screeching]

    The main risk is gonna be flat tires,

    broken suspension parts and definitely damaging

    kind of the soft underbelly of your car and your tires.

    Well I guess we only got one choice.

    [engine revving] [fence breaking]

    There are definitely measures that you can take

    to protect the skid plates underneath the car

    heavy-duty suspension, heavy-duty tires

    maybe a little extra air pressure.

    It's all real driving back then

    and honestly it's really pretty good.

    Car chase, Ronin.

    [tires squealing] [engine revving]

    [tires squealing]

    [engine revving]

    [tires squealing]

    So these high speed pursuits in narrow city streets

    like this chase through Paris,

    there's a lot of curbs, there's a lot of obstacles,

    vegetable carts as they love in the movie chase scenes

    and everything else.

    Nice.

    I like that.

    My kind of job.

    The biggest key is just always looking for

    your opening, and your window and your gap and your spot

    where you can fit the car.

    Why?

    Why?

    It's your human instinct a lot of times to be

    looking at the pedestrian and the vegetable cart.

    Go to what you know.

    Just like skiing or mountain biking or anything else

    you look at the bad things you hit the bad things,

    you look at the good places, you look in the good places

    you go in the good places.

    Car chase through a mall, The Blues Brothers.

    You got us in this parking lot pal.

    Now you get us out!

    [car crashes] [tires squealing]

    [screaming] [siren wailing]

    [horn honking]

    Hey there's pants and burgers.

    Yeah, lots of space in this mall.

    So there's not a lot not to love about

    The Blues Brothers chase through the mall.

    There's nothing in there that your normal car

    couldn't really do.

    [tires squealing] [glass shattering]

    [tires squealing] [car crashing]

    [tires squealing]

    They drove through a lot of glass,

    so you might get a flat tire but there wasn't really

    you know computer stuff back then to really fake

    anything with.

    Looks like a lot of fun.

    Why don't you offer some constructive criticism?

    They should've put their seat belts on.

    That's all I'm gonna say about that one.

    Burnout, the Transporter.

    [tires squealing] [engine revving]

    [intense music] [yelling]

    Go go go go! [screaming]

    The foot camera of doing that burnout isn't exactly right.

    I'm listening.

    In order to do that burnout, you'd either need to

    rev the engine, dump the clutch and quickly left foot brake.

    Be specific

    Dumping the clutch is when you rev the engine

    and quickly release the clutch in order to

    shock-load those rear tires and give them a lot of

    quick acceleration to get them to break traction

    and start spinning.

    No long speeches, just keep it simple.

    Or, manage both those tasks with just your right foot

    and heel-and-toe it to stay still doing a burnout.

    [engine revving] [screaming]

    [car crashing]

    But also you know obviously once he tries to jump the bridge

    it all just goes into computer-generated land

    and he lands on a trailer and magically drives away.

    Very good.

    Spikes on the hubcaps, Grease.

    [engine revving] [taunting laughter]

    [metal shearing] [engine revving]

    The idea of putting spikes on your hubcaps to try

    and get into somebody else's bodywork and their wheels

    and tires and disable their vehicle,

    well it's sort of bad sportsmanship I suppose.

    Yeah, so?

    What you find though is that he only mounted them

    kind of to his hubcaps and so when they really needed them

    they kind of fell off.

    And you probably wouldn't want to make it out of aluminum

    like you see this one is, it's gonna crack

    and break apart pretty easily.

    Probably wanna use some high-strength steel bolted through

    your lug nuts.

    You'd have some useful wheel spikes.

    Horsepower, The Fate of the Furious.

    [engine revving]

    You gotta have about 2000 horsepower in that thing.

    How about 3000? [engine revving]

    [switches clicking] [air pressure releasing]

    [engine revving] [metal cable tightening]

    Whoa! Yeah!

    Two things on that.

    One, as long as both rear tires are spinning

    it doesn't matter if you have 2000 horsepower

    20,000 horsepower, he's not getting

    any traction on the road.

    He's not getting any grip, he's not pulling anyone anywhere

    at that point.

    Something about this thing just doesn't add up to me.

    He might have 500 horsepower,

    he could have closer to a thousand perhaps

    and in this situation where you're trying to pull something,

    it's the difference between horsepower and torque

    is where you really might wanna spend a little bit of time

    doing some homework.

    I'm gonna keep it about the cars.

    Acceleration at higher speeds

    you're worried about horsepower but really pulling

    and moving and getting things going you need

    a huge amount of torque.

    Jumping a car, The Dukes of Hazzard.

    [engine revving]

    [high tempo hillbilly music]

    [Driver] Yeehaw! [car crashing]

    [high tempo saloon piano music]

    One of the mainstays of the old Dukes of Hazzard

    were these massive car jumps.

    Thirty, forty feet in the air and everybody lands

    and drives away like they're fine.

    [car crashing] [siren wailing]

    [high tempo saloon piano music]

    [siren wailing]

    [car crashing]

    Helicopters. Ready helicopters.

    [siren wailing]

    Jumping a car is just like jumping anything else.

    What you need is a pretty smooth takeoff

    and then a nice, smooth, downhill landing.

    Right before they go off the jump,

    the driver takes his hands off the wheel

    and puts one sort of like in the middle of the wheel

    like this.

    Something you never really wanna do.

    Good hand position always, especially in that situation.

    Sure gonna be a pleasure to work with

    a real professional aint it?

    Yeah.

    But you definitely wanna be at the right angle

    at takeoff, on the throttle with a nice

    smooth landing on the way out in order to

    accomplish that successfully with a car.

    Crashing a car, Spectre.

    [Driver] [intense chase music] Gah!

    [engine revving] [car crashing]

    So he drives off a little jump in an Aston Martin

    and rips the entire top off another car.

    [engine revving] [car crashing]

    without doing any damage to his.

    Completely fake.

    So on almost every vehicle in the world

    you've got A, B, and C pillars.

    Your A pillars are the pillars on either side of

    your windshield.

    Those strong metal bars that go up and support the roof.

    By your doors you've got the B pillars.

    Kind of on your shoulder length, those are the B pillars

    and the C pillars, if you have them,

    if you got you know not a really small car

    would be in the back.

    Again those rear-most pillars that

    support the roof structure.

    Those A, B, and C pillars are some of the strongest

    points of your car.

    So if your car is in a rollover it doesn't just crumple.

    The idea of an Aston Martin cruising through there

    with his bumper cover still intact is not realistic.

    Driving down the stairs.

    The Bourne Identity.

    [engine revving]

    [scream]

    [engine revving] [screaming]

    [car crashing]

    [engine revving] [tires squealing]

    So this is a great car chase, it's all real driving.

    There's no kind of CG stuff going on.

    I'm just trying to do the right thing.

    As far as the Mini, it's cool to see in a movie like this

    because in a real situation, you're not gonna be driving

    you know, the Aston's and the Jaguars and the real

    you know, Bugatti's or whatever it is.

    You wanna drive what everybody else is driving.

    I gotta figure this out.

    Whether or not a vehicle will be able to

    drive up or down stairs, really you're looking at

    the approach angle which is the angle you'll be able to

    drive up something between the bumper and the tire.

    The break-over angle which is in the middle,

    and then your departure angle which is the same thing.

    Line between your rear bumper and the bottom of

    your rear tire.

    That roughly tells you how much of an incline you

    can drive up or down or over.

    You wouldn't obviously wanna take off the top

    quite as quickly as they did.

    Go a little easier roll over and same thing at the bottom.

    For driving down stair cases and over things like that,

    a little Mini is actually a really good way to go.

    [bell dings] [Narrator] Conclusion.

    As much fun as it is to kind of poke around

    and see what could be more realistic,

    if you adhered by all of the actual laws of physics

    in the world, a lot of these car chases

    would be really boring.

    If one car spins out and the other one is just gone

    and that's the end of the scene, nobody wants to watch that.

    The way that they're filming some of these

    action chase scenes today is pretty spectacular to watch

    and really enjoy a lot of it just as a viewer.

    [singing bowls] [hands clapping]

    Ah!
