Default My Doritos Commercial w/1966 Mustang

Doritos corn chips (for those not familiar with their product in other places of the world) is having a "Crash the Superbowl" commercial contest. I made a commercial featuring my wife's 1966 Mustang that I built for her. I'd appreciate knowing what you think. So far people have really liked it.

http://crashthesuperbowl.com/#/gallery/video/270/

The babe driving the car is NOT my wife. Neither of us are the "model" type. I wrote, directed, and edited this commercial.

Doritos will pick 5 Finalists from the more than 1,700 entries. The Finalists each get a prize. Then they will post the finalist's videos on their site and will let the public pick the winner. The winner get's aired during the Superbowl. How cool is that?

It was handling well until it lost grip due to all the plastic discs on the road. Who owns all the frisbees?

Maybe the ad should really be targeting those morons who left them on the road.

If you have a look at the "related" vids in the little window, it has listed a FG XR6T Ute Acceleration test.
Yep, that's related to anti-hooning ;)

“Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”.

This bloke was on In Pit Lane the other night. His names’ George Plasa and he’s from Germany. He has a BMW M3 powered by an ex formula 1 Judd V8 engine. He competes in hill climbs and this bloke really knows how to steer.

This car is insane and there are plenty of clips here.
