Laurence Wilson Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 And instead of sticking with tradition and opting for a 90° layout like the Ducati, Suzuki or Honda offerings, the RSV Mille uses a 60° cylinder angle for a shorter, more compact engine. The engine also has a dry sump for extra rigidity and even more compactness, and to prevent starvation to the front cylinder when the front end’s wheelie-ing to the heavens. Oh, dribble Sod the Seven ... I need a Fisher Menace and one of these. Peardrop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurence Wilson Posted April 11, 2004 Author Share Posted April 11, 2004 It's the one where Jackie is the lead mechanic of a small race car 'remodelling' business in Hong Kong. His father is often called up by the police to supervise in identifying illegal road car modifications. A nasty American race driver does some illegal racing in Hong Kong but doesn't appreciate Jackie and his father helping the cops catch him. So he smashes up their workshop / house with a big crain, kidnaps Jackies sisters and challenges him to a race. Cue a few scenes where Jackie builds a Mitsu Evo race car. Jackie crashes the car at the race track ... but some kind young woman who shut Jackies hand in a car door at the beginning of the movie turns up and lends him an entire racing team with two Mitsu GTOs. Lots more racing, crashes and stunts (usually sped up but somehow comical rather than cringeworthy) fighting and a conclusion to the film with the bad guy going to Jail. Obviously Not exactly Grand Prix ... more Days of Thunder level of cool but really rather flawed.
