    a quick review...
    it seriously has to be one of the crappiest motoring related films ever.
    I mean I lost count of the number of continuity errors...
    not just motorsport related (different helmets/cars/wings/tyres)
    but people wearing different clothes in scenes
    that happen after one another.
    the plot is next to non-existent. the ending laughably ridiculous
    (the immature rookie driver whose character never develops through
    out the film wins the championship, with a broken foot).
    it includes scenes that hint at the danger or motorsport but just
    come across as being totally insensitive (flying wheels into the crowd,
    which actually claimed a few lives over the past two/three years)..
    a guy crashs and loses his legs (cough alex zanardi).
    and i havent even mentioned the actors.. stallone? *shudder*
    oh god its just so bad. dont rent it or buy it if you like your
    motorsport.. you will pull your hair out at its stupidity..

    but anyway has anyone else seen it? im wondering what cars they were driving during the (pointing towards the rear) camera chases? a barber dodge chassis i thought.. typically used in american race schools... its extremely obvious in some shots (they overlayed the CART machines onto their own race sequence with the other chassis..l) .. any info would be helpful till i win my arguement with a mate :)
