Lap 12 Tune-Up (Recap/Relap)

We’re closing out our Vin Diesel lap and welcoming in Lap 13 in our
mechanic-prescribed Lap 12 Tune-Up / Relap / Recap. Jessica Collins
(a.k.a. Montez) is here for the full episode for her Lap 12 swan
song. With nothing to recap, is there reason for the Montez Minute?
Regardless, she goes full South, reflects on the franchise, and
takes the character quiz (again? or for the first time?). We all
share our rankings (featuring a fun new twist), then discuss two
early Vin Diesel appearances you can find on YouTube: Breakin’
in the USA (starting at 28:40)
and Multi-Facial (starting at 37:15). We discuss Dom’s
lack of breakdancing and rapping in the Fastiverse, explore Vin
Diesel’s Wiki, and dive deep into Vin’s writing/directing debut to
wonder: could he have been destined for greater things? We also
talk about Viewmasters, “classy” beer, and an idea for a future
lap. Plus! We talk about the second trailer for Fast
X (starting at 58:20) as some of the plot points and
connections seem to start falling into place. We announce next
lap’s theme. Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our Patreon page at
