Not at all, it actually has a really good story line.  The funniest part of it all is the subaru (being the main feature to the film) is a drag car haha.   

You should watch it amby, it's quite relivant.

So it's about current world events?

The only plot synopsis I can find says it's about a street racer who gets in trouble and starts drag racing with the NHRA. Kind of a rip-off of Tokyo Drift (kid street races, get's in trouble and is sent to live with his father). If it ends up on TV, I may watch it.

Trailer:



Seems very Fast and the Furious-ish. Illegal racing, young(ish) and good looking people and some random love story thrown in for good measure. I think the Senna movie is more deserving of the title "Born to Race".

I watched it. It filled a few hours on a boring night.

I watched it because there's nothing to do out in Fort McMurray (aside from work).

It's like a poor man's Tokyo Drift lol.
