Time Machine: Starsky & Hutch

Caught this scene the other day, and it reminded me
of a scene from the late 70s or early 80s. Back in the
day, I used to zip through parking lots, and gas stations
like a madman in my dad's old Oldsmobile. Sometimes for gas,
sometimes as a detour. My friend at the time said I drove like
it was a scene from a movie. I said I was using the
"Starksy & Hutch" method :-)

Note: "Starsky & Hutch" was an American tv series about two
streetwise detectives who were often seen crazy driving
in a red Ford Torino.

Does look like a time warp short to the late 70s, apart from the car on the right which looks more 90s vintage. +V
