+1. I love how that guy lets a veritable stranger wreck his car and isn't very concerned about it.

Did it? It introduced a lot of young people to cars they might not have known about before. Today it's video games.

People love to crack jokes about Karate Kid but martial arts schools had huge increases in enrollment.

I completely agree with Aaron, it did ruin the scene. Suddenly every fag with a 5" muffler on their stock civic thought they were the king of the street.

That movie is single handedly responsible for closing down Red Rock
(Which had been around since the 60's without issue)


Just because it sold a few extra neonz and intakes doesn't mean it did the car culture any good.

Yes it did and video games have always been around.
U mean the badass bruce lee,jackie chan,chuck norris movies and schools or gracee (sp?) ju jitsu or MMA had nothing to do with increase in martial arts?

Stop talking out of your ass about shit you have no clue about.

You are confusing a product with the desire to obtain a product. F&F is marketing.

Would we have the parts aftermarket that we do if the mass of kids weren't buying stuff? No chance. The mass market is what keeps industries in business.

I also doubt there are many 'ricers' that wouldn't build their motors if they could afford it. The fart can kids are just poor, but that doesn't mean they will always be. It's better for the industry if they grow up and continue to spend money in it.

Either you're short-sighted or you should try an economics course.
