Do the names Vin Serento and Lucas White somehow ring a bell? No?

What did I just watch?
We've become accustomed to seeing Vin Diesel and the late Paul Walker grace our screens with their roles as Dominic Toretto and Brian O'Connor in the Fast and the Furious movie franchise.

Released in 2015, the movie Superfast! is a hilarious take on the entire Fast and Furious film series. It features all of the characters of the franchise up to Furious 7.
Some of the characters' names are a combination of their real names with that of fictional surnames that sound similar to the real on-screen character. Do the names Michelle Toritz, Detective Rock Johnson, and rapper Cameo remind you of anyone in particular?

Whereas high-performance cars like the Nissan Skyline GTR, Porsche 911 and Mazda RX-7's are the vehicle stars of the show in the parody, however, Toyota Corolla and Scion tC's take its place as 'race cars'.
Would you sit through it?
It has a running time of 99 minutes but it would be interesting to see the director cramp seven movies into one under two hours.
Judging by the trailer, the parody of Vin Diesel's character looks spot on.
With a budget of $20-million this movie was a massive flop, only raking in $1-million at the box office. Surely, the studio would have known it was going to be a failure from the beginning?
