So, in real life, I think it was Phil Remmington (the skinny engineer guy in the movie) that he talked with such a thick Texas accent with so much regional slang, and Ken Miles talked with such a thick cockney british accent and regional slang that it would have seemed like the two of them would need a translator just to have a conversation; but, they always knew exactly what the other was saying when they were talking about cars.
It's just the language of racers. They can feel everything. Whether it's the ratio of the gears, the tires not gripping to the road, the weight distribution and even as far as noticing the micro delays of the engine. It's always fascinating.
@@GabsARV What's even more fascinating is you can't teach all of that, not in a million years. Some people are wired differently, both body and mind. Regardless of upbringing. Some people just ... CAN. And this guy is one of them. Before he died, he probably forgot more about cars than you or I will EVER know in our entire lives. People like that are special. They come MAYBE once a generation and should be greatly respected like the demi-gods they appear to be.
On this scene, when he mentions everything with it, my friend was like "in other words it's fun to drive." Then I started laughing when he took back off in it. lol
Shelby said the first time Miles drove the car he called it an undriveable hunk of metal. Shelby only answered „So it got potential.“ a d Miles was off again already.
"Well?" "Cars garbage!" "Yep" "Got waaaay too many problems with it!" "You're telling me..." "It can't even stay on the road!" "Anything else" ".........gimme a sec."
Ken was tired after his job and everything but as soon as he saw the car he became so excited that he forgot everything. These little details are what makes it more fun to watch.
When I was in sales we called it the weekend pet strategy. Idea being, a pet shop owner is dealing with a customer who’s on the fence about getting, say, a dog. The owner suggests just taking it home for the weekend and trying it out, knowing that when people get the thing they want, even temporarily, they want to keep it. Shelby put the puppy in Ken’s hands, for lack of a better term. Worked like a charm.
Exactly. I had wanted to build this big, top of the line PC that would cost 4k. Too much normally but after reading Amazon's 12 month payment deal, I figured it'd work. Came to find out that they'd tried to put all 4k worth of parts on the Amazon Store Card I have that currently only has a limit of 900. What I should've done was just cancel it all and wait a few more months for more cash. But by then, I'd gotten the idea of finally owning my dream PC stuck in my head and ended up putting everything on my credit card, which had just got upped to a 3.5k limit. With the Amazon Store Card, I could buy everything. Still trying to pay that all off. So maybe not the exact same strategy but close.
What's funny is that in real life the new ford from the ending had problems too in Le Mans 67 or 68 so the drivers had to be really careful to know were to push and where to slow down because otherwise, the car would stop, even worst, during that race the ferrari were in second place, one of the drivers called Dan Gurney said that the last laps were really stressful because they were on his tail the entire time looking for mistakes for passing him out.
I was a bit bummed that the GT40 just kind of shows up here, the work they did in England to design and build it was imo just as important as what Shelby and Miles brought into the mix.
Yes! The movie implies that Shelby "built" the car but really he "tuned it" for racing. Not that this is inconsequential but it's not the same as building a car. Without the initial work by Lola (the Mk6 GT), Ford would not have won.
It’s a movie they don’t have time to show off every single stinking detail. Nothing implied that he built the entire car. Just that they had it. They even said “fresh off the plane from England”
He literally says "fresh off the plane from England." And anyway, here's a dose of cold hard truth - this is a better STORY. Which is why all that stuff prior isn't in the movie.
I dunno the real Mr. Shelby, but... If even he can call the car he built "worse than awful" when somebody has called it "awful", he must be really open-minded and open to opinions.
Shelby didn’t build that ‘prototype’ chassis, ford had already been testing with it by that time racing in the UK and they imported it in for them to use as a starting point
I distinctly remember watching this scene in theaters and when I saw that I thought man that has to be so cool and fun to drive! And I was waiting for them to start drooling over the specs and all that, but what I was not expecting was for them to say it was bad hahaha

You can Humiliate them, you can bench them, you can make fun of their low saving but one thing you can't do, You can't get the addiction of burning rubber out of a Petrol Head There's one thing they won't forget, and it's RACING
Ken avoids eye contacts and tries to list all the flaws that the car is shit to drive. His heads wants to go home to his wife and eat amd take a bath, but his heart and adrenal glands just wants to gun it some more
This looks like B727-200 which was a bit bigger than regular B727. but 727-200 first flew in 1967 and this particular scene pre dates 1966 race. In my opinion, this is 727-200. whoever put that plane did not had idea about there timeline, unintentional mistake.
@@shadowmaster3993 It's a 200 acting as a 100 like those Superformance cars acting as the Mk1s😉. Boeing almost made the 737-300 & 400. They would of been twin jets in the tail. The 757 would of never existed.

They can make a Ford vs Ferrari 🚗movie 2,3,4 from the 60's and even in 2016 in more modern times beating Ferrari toe to toe when it spun out of control and the Ford GT40 kept the lead. In 2016 it was almost a similar race to this movie but different. Ford made a come back after several years of not participating in Lemans.💪
Impressive. Very nice. Let’s see Paul Allen’s GT40 drive.
My god, it even has a racing stripe
He got a reservation at Dorsia with that car.
The tasteful thickness.
Ferrari was a part of that whole Yale thing.
@@bobthestinky7369 I see what you did there 😉
I love the scene so much they both understand each other so well and can feel the car not just drive it

Yup. Talk to professional racing drivers they'll tell you that the cars that are harder to drive are often the ones that are more fun to drive.
It’s shit but it’s good shit is what he’s trying to say.

Hah that’s brilliant.
that's quite brilliant stuff.
They also do this in car sales it's called a BCA (borrowed car agreement). Even just the test drive is about building ownership in the vehicle
Plus knowing Ken was a proper, true petrolhead he wouldn’t be able to resist it once he seen it.

I do kinda agree.
Just about as bad-ass looking a you can get if you ask me.
She’s a really nice car.
His answer to the last question is like:"Yes, there was something else...l drive another Round to remember again".
...😂👌
God the sound design in this film. Seeing it in theaters- the room SHOOK
1:17 the attention to detail right there. Ken talks about the front of the car rising up, it shows it rising up right there
This movie makes you feel more patriotic then any war movie! What a machine and a story. Gorgeous
absolutely!!!
The cars anglo-american though. It was very much the Americans did the engine and money, the UK did the chassis and building.
this scene gets even better after the final scene, when we see the new test driver saying the car is amazing....

They had Porsche's and Mustang's too.
They Enjoyed life to fullest.

Did you know that was Shelby's every day driver? It's his grandsons car and he let them use it for the movie
dude when he jumps back in. damn great acting, you can feel ken miles' hearing destiny
I love this scene just fir how much character there is in their performances with only a few lines.
They are called prototypes for a reason there is always room to improve. These vehicles were ahead of their time and they defeated the italians.
and it still looks like these cars are from the future. one of the finest piece of engineering.
Until the Germans arrived
What do you mean by defeting the Italians?
@@marinodezelak1180 watch the movie
@@dsoup7414 Nah.
Is it meant like, in the American market they managed to replace the Italian sports cars?
everything about this movie was amazing. Just look at the lighting in this scene and the sound design.
A "Perfect" film.
Shelby knew exactly the buttons to push to get Miles onboard
This scene’s very realistic. Both Carol Shelby and Ken Miles were legends. 60 years ago, cars were much cooler than today in my opinion.

@@jordanvalencia9597 they never mentioned that it was an all American car either.

Lmao love to see that me explaining gears like that isn’t weird.I always felt like some gears in cars are too low or high
i really love the twa 727 in the background
Man i wish todays race cars looked like this.

Dude anyone now would die to drive the gt40 (me) and ken is like
“This things a piece of shit”
pretty sure his second round of driving it is just him saying on the inside "yeah it's awful, but lemme drive again because it's also fun".
at 1:59 Caroll was like 'We got him now...'
"Does it come in black?"
Yup

There's one thing they won't forget, and it's RACING
Such an amazing movie.
This scene, with the addition of a look from the missus, could have been the trailer.
Man I ain’t even born American but when ford won I sobbed like a bitch and that’s what petrolheads are about passion about cars and racing.
I got pissed off that they screwed over Miles the victory. (not sure if that happened in real life)
Miles is beat from a long day in the shop but suddenly gets energy and life when behind the wheel of a race car
Attention to detail here
The Lola gt40 had driver seat on right
Ken avoids eye contacts and tries to list all the flaws that the car is shit to drive. His heads wants to go home to his wife and eat amd take a bath, but his heart and adrenal glands just wants to gun it some more
Funny how the GT40 MK.I actually won a Le Mans race later in 1968 and 1969.
Does anyone know where the real life location of this test took place ?
I work in aviation but can’t identify that plane? Looks too big to be B727.
This looks like B727-200 which was a bit bigger than regular B727. but 727-200 first flew in 1967 and this particular scene pre dates 1966 race.
