Fun Facts

  • At least some of the race action takes place at Indian Dunes, which was previously used in Ride the Whirlwind.

Mistakes

  • When Jon jumps his truck during the race, it appears the entire truck falls apart when it lands. The beauty rings on his wheels go flying and the wheels appear to go through the fenders. Not only does the truck seem to run fine, but later in the episode the beauty rings are back on!
  • When the bad guys first spot the CHP officers at the traffic stop during the pre-titles sequence, they are only about 100 yards away, yet they don't pass for 40 seconds. Even at 30 mph they would have traveled nearly 600 yards in that time.
