KR Promo: "Just wait until you see my Turbo Boost"!

Post by neps » Thu Jul 17, 2008 11:28 pm

Sorry - this is too big for me to have hidden in another thread. We didn't believe it when weeezl mentioned it days ago, but we've finally go proof.

Aired tonight during Last Comic Standing - this KR teaser specifically calls out Turbo Boost - what exciting things to come!

8) Turbo Boost? I see NBC has sent a piece offering my way, changing my avatar has indeed had an effect...we shall see NBC...we shall see. Come September I can just imagine what we'll see as KI3T activates the Turbo Boost...a loud whoosh, blue flames from the tail pipes and a nanotech NOS sticker materializing next to a Ford logo! :twisted: Just kidding guys, it's good news, KITT/KI3T without turbo boost would be like Linus(?) without his blanket. Heres hoping for the best! :D

When I just clicked on the link - the video player was muted. Check and see if the player on youtube is muted? very odd.

I wasn’t able to play if from the news page but I watched it alright on Youtube. The sound did go away once but hitting control refresh or altering between highdef might bring it back around.
...odd indeed.

I wonder though, will this mean the actual car jumping Turbo Boost or just the much less used regular Turbo Boost for a quick burst of speed?
The new and again improved evil's advertisement is currently too long and too badass to display here. But let's just say that with now 50% more evil, this **** is great! :twisted: :skar:

I'm wondering the same thing. I know they were talking about the cost of jumping cars but hopefully they can pull it off with cgi or something. I want to see kitt really fly!!!!

:-( No longer a valid link on YouTube Neil. Any chance of getting this as just a regular QuickTime movie file uploaded somewhere? Hopefully/Possibly in HD?

I got a bit worried after that last post, fearing youtube took the video down, Id downloaded it the other day anyway so i re-posted it just in case.

Maybe it’s because so many people are trying to watch it. It’s working fine for me though.

Yea - the YouTube url is still working for me. Not sure why so many are having trouble - so I apologize.

I don't have this clip in HD - as the show it was aired on was being broadcast in SD, so too the Commercials.

One thing from the promos airing at the moment, they all have the 'pumping' scanner rather than the original, so that kind of ends that speculation....

Quite like the new one...
