The Fuzz & The Furious
Thursday, Sept 17
Santa Pod, Northants
Come and see if you can beat the police on the track
To mark the UK release of FAST & FURIOUS Universal Studios is hosting the first ever UK ‘Beat The Heat’ that gives young people the opportunity to race the police. Beat The Heat is an educational programme already running in 33 US states and in Canada, Puerto Rico and Australia.
Texas Police Officer and President of Beat The Heat, Lt Tom Brown, is flying to the UK to demonstrate his driving skills against British racers at Santa Pod Raceway in a high-speed, competitive, drag race meeting when the fuzz meets the furious on the track for the first time.
You will be able to capture the cars, the races, and the participants as UK petrol-heads pit their wits against each other and the police. We are also planning to have British police taking part in the ultimate British/American police head to head.
Lt Tom Brown will be available for media interviews, talking about the success the programme has had in the US, and also advising how and why we should introduce a similar programme here; making British roads safer – taking racing off the streets and onto the track – with the ultimate thrill of racing against the police.
FAST & FURIOUS took over £13.5m at the UK box office and zoomed to the no. 1 spot – making it twice as big as any of the Fast & Furious franchise to date!
Fast & Furious is released on Blu-ray & DVD September 21.

Not sure if it’s anyone’s cup of tea but thought I’d put it on here anyway.
