Well, I can't list them all, but a real favorite turbo boost moment was when KITT jumped over a goal post at a football field during a goofy football play Michael initiated.
I laughed!:) :P 8) :wink:

That was probably one of the best episode endings ever. I remember the face on Bonnie & Devon as well as the voice of KITT urging him to stop !!! hehe

I dunno. I liked his interaction and talking with others more than turbo-boosting. So the turbo-boosts never really stood out much for me. Except maybe, the one where he jumps this one intersection, or the one where he jumps a lake.

Oh yeah, or the one that makes you wince: The one where he turbo-boosts right into car head-on in KvK. That one was a shocker. :shock:

has to be when he jumps through the side of someones flat about 90 feet in the air. I cant rememeber the exact episode but he lands in the flat, and then after the ads KITT's back outside with no indication of how he got out.

It's got to be when KITT jumped vs KARR. Was there any doubt who would win?? Ha, but great nonetheless. :)

Well since I haven't seen the rest of the seasons in such a long time, I can't really say my favorite of them all, but my favorite of the first season has got to be the one in "A Nice Indecent Little Town" where K.I.T.T jumps the entire intersection. I could just imagine the look on people's faces when they saw that. :shock: :o :shock:

Good call LadyV. I was going to mention that one as well. What I like about it is that it is one of the only turbo boosts that is shown at normal speed. Pretty much every other turbo boost is shown at least partly in slow-motion, so the one in Little Town really stands out.

I dont recall the episode name but I really loved the one
where KITT and Michael jump over Devon while he was on the
motocycle. Devon covers his eyes. Funny stuff...........

I really loved that time when Michael and KITT, with April Curtis beside Michael, turbo boosted over Devon, after she said, "Oh, Michael you wouldn't.":)
Michael was really mischievous during that moment.;)
That's also a funny turbo boost moment! :D 8)

I loved the jump over the Mercedes in "Soul Survivor" (another "real time" jump). The slow-mo version of that appears in the teaser, and looks really cool.

The jump into Zachary's apartment is also a series highlight (even though it was achieved with those pesky miniatures).

Turbo Boost

Post by KnightRider2000 » Tue Apr 05, 2005 9:22 pm

In the first season when KITT turbo boosts through a bad guy's van smashing it to peices (it can be seen in the season 1 trailer).

I can imagine David Hasselhoff taking the bad guy by th collar (one of his famous moves) and says to his face "Why haven't you called Geico?"

KnightRider2000: :lol: That's a good one! Reminds me of when TurbomanKnight had done a caption for a picture caption contest that used to be on the boards at one time. It was of Michael and Garth face-to-face. Michael says he has good news and Garth is like "What?" and Michael tells him he saved a lot on car insurance. Garth goes something like "Lucky bast**d! You should see how much I pay for Goliath!" :lol:

FWIW, Dryden is insured by GEICO. ;)

That's exactly the one I was gonna say, jumping between the alleys and over the street like that his so cool. And, as Mike said, the fact that its at normal speed is awesome!!

The chase starts would with a rarity:

And ends with a sweet jump:

EDIT: What's wrong? Why won't they show up?

Cloudkit:

try (img="link")(/img) replacing the ()'s with []'s of course. :) If that don't work try it without using quotes around your link.

There's also a "preview" button when posting or editing so you can see what it'll look like before it posts, in case you're not sure.

Hope this helps...

Well, first off, the site turns out that it won't let you "hotlink" so you can't go directly to the picture. Second of all, it might be that it's in .bmp and not .png, .gif or .jpg format.

cloudkitt- you can also try using photobucket to host images. That's the site I always use. Here's the link. Maybe this site will work for you.

Hmmm... what browser are you using? Sometimes sites like visitors using IE 6 only for some reason. But if that's what you're using, I'm stumped on what it could be.
