Let's start off Fast Friday with a fun little post.

Remember the stock-car racing movie "Days of Thunder?"

Loosely - very, very loosely - based on the story of Tim Richmond coming to drive for Rick Hendrick, the movie starred Tom Cruise as an up-and-coming race-car driver with a phenomenal amount of talent but little focus or discipline.

We found this on the internet the other day and figured it might be worth a laugh, since in 8 minutes or less it explains everything wrong with the movie.

Well, maybe not everything. Diehard NASCAR fans could probably find a few more. Still, this is an entertaining clip.

Warning: The language gets a little salty in places, so it might be NSFW.

Otherwise, it's great fun. Enjoy!
