Y88 in the movies
« on: September 06, 2022, 11:00:17 AM »
I recently was in a short video promo for SMU football with the famous running back Eric Dickerson.  Eric drove my car for a few scenes and then I drove it while the helicopter was shooting film.

That is pretty sweet! Looks killer too. Much better than that rice burner.

This is the rest of the video, there aren't any more scenes with the Y88, unfortunately.  But, being as there mascot is the "Mustangs" it does make sense to use a mustang.

Very Cool!

The car looks great.  I see the logic of using a Mustang in the final version, but  the T/A was cooler!
