WHY you should NOT worship "movie cars"

I get annoyed how obvious it is (at least to me) that cars are NOT driving as fast as they want you to think during chase scenes in movies. Sometimes they do a good job editing it to make it look faster but most of the time they just have a ton of quick cuts and keep the trans in 2nd gear with the engine screaming near redline so it "sounds" fast too. I remember noticing it in the movie Death Proof where the black Charger was chasing the white Challenger, there's a point where you can hear one of them accidentally shift into 3rd and the RPMs drop for a split second lmao. Bullitt and the ORIGINAL Gone in 60 Seconds are awesome because the cars were actually going that fast. Towards the end of the chase scene in Bullitt when they get out of the city onto the highway you can tell the cars are really hauling ***; the way they lean when switching lanes, the rate at which they pass other pedestrian cars etc.
