The Bullit movie is widely known for its car Ford Mustang vs. Dodge Charger chase scene through the streets of San Francisco, which is regarded as one of the most influential in movie history.

It has become a cliche of course, and almost any car chase motion picture has a scene where a vehicle smashes into fruit stand or a bunch of tables and chairs trying to evade or to catch his enemy.

Now don't leave, we're not going to bore you with some of that old stuff, what we got here is cliche action chase R/C style. Yes, you are correct, some folks used scaled down Mustangs, cardboard, glue and spray paint to recreate such a scene.

There's speed, drifting, dust and havoc all over. And it's plain awesome! The setup gets wrecked in the end by a GMC van, probably for a real life scale comparison, but don't worry, the Mustangs had enough time to flee.

This might be the greatest R/C car chase ever made so be sure not to miss it below:
