In a similar vein to PJM's post
'Getaway In Stockholm'.

Highly illegal and irresponsible, but oh so much fun.

For those not in the know, the film starts with a Porsche 911 Turbo driving along the motorway in Sweden. A police Volvo appears behind and signals for the driver to stop, which he does, and the policeman gets out of his car and starts walking towards the Porsche.

And then the Porsche driver floors it. He takes the next exit off the motorway and leads the police on a high-speed chase through the deserted streets of central Stockholm, out onto twisty country roads, and eventually pulls into the driveway of a house and switches his lights off.

And that's the film. 15 minutes of skilled (and incredibly lucky) driving, with the only soundtrack coming from a turbocharged Boxer engine and the occasional wail of a police siren left far behind.

It's brilliant.

The swedes seem to go in for that kind of thing quite a lot. There's a guy called 'Ghost Rider' who did the same thing, but on a bike.




One more: 'Dancer in the Dark', by Bjork. Some say it's pretenscious - I say it's fucking brilliant.

Street racing ftw
There are a few more of these too - the best quality one features a Honda NSX, which makes for a cool soundtrack.
