Death Race

Revealing mistake: When the Mustang does a handbrake turn as the Dreadnought takes a shortcut, there are a set of tyre marks exactly where they turn. Granted it's a racetrack, but to be directly under the Mustang's wheels? Clearly from a previous take. (01:11:50)

Revealing mistake: When the Dreadnought blows up the Buick Riviera, it's plain to see there is no engine or transmission in the car when it flips up and forward.

Revealing mistake: During the first stage and just before his death, Grims' tyres get blown out, causing him to barrel roll down the track before getting bombed from behind by 14k. The car then lands upside down after hitting a sign. When it lands, you can see at least two tyres, both intact without any signs of puncture or even damage.

Visible crew/equipment: When 14k's navigator is killed by the Dreadnought's wheel spikes, it shreads the car's bodywork. When the camera zooms in on 14 through this hole, the camera shadow can be seen next to the hole. (01:13:00)

Question: I'm not sure about this, but didn't Grim's tires get blown out? If so, right after the next scene, where 14K hits Grim's car, the tires appear intact. It also looked new despite getting blown by a missile.

Chosen answer: Yes the tires do appear to be shot out so that would make it a mistake.
