Turbo Honda vs modified Cadillac CTS Not sure I believe everything the Honda owner is saying. That Honda is way too fast for what he claims its done to it.

Cool Awesomest. Video. Ever.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arL04K3HLMw

After watching this video I love KITT even more but I also like The Hoff even less.

KITT's Turbo Boost is an awesome car feature, right? So, every box-crashing, Styrofoam rock-smashing Turbo Boost sequence ever, packed into one video must be the most awesome thing ever, right? It is.

Wikipedia defines Turbo Boost as:

Used in most episodes, a series of rear mounted undercarriage rocket motors allows KITT to accelerate to incredible speeds in excess of 200 mph (322 km/h). When activated in combination with the Trajectory Guidance System and a pair of rocket motors mounted just behind the front tires that lifted the front of the car, KITT could jump 40 feet (12,2 m) into the air and pass over obstacles in the road. The system also allowed KITT added power whenever he had to maneuver heavy objects such as pushing a heavy boulder off a cliff, or pulling a large vehicle out of danger. The boosters could fire forward or backward.

If they would have cut out the pushing of the turbo boost every other scene, they could have got that down to about 5 minutes.

Suite vid though.

That car or cars must have been totaled many times, especially when you see it in a nose dive before hitting the ground. Even a flat four wheel landing must have seriously damaged the car. I wonder how they coped with the constant destruction of their prop car.
