The series needs another car-related "thing" to latch onto and build a premise around it. I hope Justin Lin realized this and stepped up to it for 6.

I tell people all the time that part 3 is my favorite.. To me it was the most "realistic" one.. They are made for entertainment I get it.. But it was the most "real" driving out of all the series.. And to hear the guy that did all the drifting say the hardest part was acting like he didn't know how to drift was kinda funny
