Default Stook on Access Hollywood

Another thread earlier today mentioned that the Stook would be on an Access Hollywood feature talking about the "Fast and the Furious".

I happened to catch it and it was somewhat fluffy, but they did show an under-the-hood shot. They had one of the main actors (forget his name) "race" one of the access hollywood guys.

The actor had a blue, SCed S2K, the AH guy had an NSX. Unfortunately, no 6K rpm clutch drop by the stook, so it got beaten off the line by the NSX. The camera angle started off right beside the cars as they took off and stayed behind them as they went up the track. Because of the rear angle, couldn't see what really happened, but the voice-over indicated the stook caught up and overtook the NSX - not sure I believe that.

You'll have to forgive my vague desciption of the stook, but I'm not up on who makes what body kits and wings (oh yeah, the blue stook did have a big wing).

I don't know what year RJ's NSX is but the older NSXs (like, pre-1998, correct me if I'm wrong) are not as fast as a SC S2000.

Wes,

that saying if the NSX was stock.....knowing RJ and his car habit, I doubt the NSX stayed stock for more than 5 minutes after he acquired it...;

For the people in LA, I think they might be showing this episode tonight at 7:30. I went to the access hollywood website, but it's down right now.
