2nd Oct 2018
Continuity mistake: When Cruise and Lugnut are first shown driving along the road, the shot from behind them driving over a hill shows their shadows cast behind them. It then cuts to a shot in front of them, where their shadows are now cast to their left. (00:03:55)
2nd Oct 2018
Revealing mistake: Cruise and Lugnut are driving home along a road after speaking with Mr. V8 and Coupe about the race. For the entire four minutes of this scene, the shadow of Cruise's wing mirror cast on the road passes under the road markings, when it should be cast on top of the markings. (00:04:00)
2nd Oct 2018
Other mistake: Wrangler is talking with four of his fans, and one of them puts their ticket on the ground for Wrangler to drive over it and leave a tyre mark on it. The tyre mark left on the ticket does not match the angle at which Wrangler drove over it. (00:08:10)
2nd Oct 2018
Revealing mistake: Many of the shots of Wrangler training for the race are reused throughout the scene. For example, the same shot of him turning around a corner is used twice, an overview shot of him driving is repeated numerous times and the same shot of Coupe watching him race through the television is repeated twice, as shown by the television replaying the exact same footage. (00:11:35)
2nd Oct 2018
Other mistake: Wrangler is seen training for the race by driving around a race track. In the first shot, he is driving around a corner, then he is driving through the track. He is then on a television being watched by Coupe, and the lap time is being recorded. However, the timer is shown just starting at zero seconds, even though he should be midway through the lap by this point. (00:11:35)
2nd Oct 2018
Other mistake: Coupe is watching Wrangler train for the race through the television that is shown displaying an overview angle of Wrangler, and sometimes a side angle of Wrangler. However, for this to be possible, there would have to be a camera filming this and there is no camera is ever seen filming Wrangler. Especially in the angles that were shown filming him. (00:11:35)
2nd Oct 2018
Continuity mistake: When Coupe is watching Wrangler race, the close-up shots of the television show a timer keeping track of how much time Wrangler spends on each lap. However, in the wide shots that show Coupe looking at the television, no timer can be seen. (00:11:45)
2nd Oct 2018
Audio problem: Wrangler is heard talking aloud to himself when preparing on the race track, but his lips never move once. (00:11:40)
2nd Oct 2018
Revealing mistake: Many of the shots of Champ preparing for the race are reused numerous times throughout the scene. Specifically, the overview shots of Champ driving, the shot of Champ driving around a corner and the shot of Coupe and Wrangler watching Champ on the television. (00:12:25)
1st Oct 2018
Continuity mistake: When Wrangler has finished tainting Champ's fuel supply, he proceeds to leave and bumps into a canister shortly after he begins to drive out. The canister falls directly forwards, and lands directly in front of his right headlight. Wrangler then continues to drive forwards, but the canister is now more to his side. (00:20:25)
1st Oct 2018
Other mistake: Wrangler knocks over a canister of oil which starts spilling oil onto the ground. There is a hole visible on the canister where the oil should be spilling out of, but no oil is shown spilling out of the hole. It is just shown spilling across the ground on its own. (00:20:35)
1st Oct 2018
Other mistake: The canister that Wrangler knocks over when he taints the Champ's fuel supply starts spilling oil onto the ground. A puddle can be seen being made from the spilt oil and is shown spreading across the ground just before the scene ends. When the oil puddle is found the next day, it is virtually the exact same size as it was the previous night when the scene ended, even though the puddle was in the middle of spreading across the ground. (00:20:35 - 00:24:25)
14th Jul 2017
Revealing mistake: Throughout the opening credits, the shot is shown panning through a road. The exact same distinct cracks on the road can be seen repeated over and over as the shot pans along. (00:00:05)
14th Jul 2017
Audio problem: When Cruise is dreaming about driving through the track at the start, he is heard exclaiming, but his lips remain shut throughout the race. (00:01:05)
14th Jul 2017
Continuity mistake: When Cruise is talking about his dream to Lugnut, Mr. V8 arrives in scene and stops in front of Cruise, mere inches away from him, but when Cruise is saying he loves race season, Mr. V8 is suddenly several feet away from Cruise. (00:01:55)
14th Jul 2017
Revealing mistake: When Mr. V8 is wondering what is the big deal about races, Coupe begins explaining to him why. She first says, "Let me tell you" and then says, "The racers are the best." As soon as she finishes saying "Let me tell you", there is a very visible blip in the animation when she begins saying "The racers are the best", showing that the animation in the speech was incomplete. (00:03:25)
14th Jul 2017
Revealing mistake: When Coupe says, "It's show time", the screen fades to black so it can transition to the next scene. Throughout the shot, before fading to black, Lugnut's wing mirror can be seen towards the left of frame, showing a very light greyish colour reflection. Just as the scene fades to black, an error in the animation can be noticed, where the reflection in Lugnut's wing mirror suddenly flickers to a much darker grey. (00:03:50)
14th Jul 2017
Revealing mistake: When Cruise and Lugnut are driving home after talking with Mr. V8 and Coupe, much of the scene is a shot of the two of them talking with each other and occasionally in the scene, the shot will cut to a closer angle of the two, with the shot focusing on either Cruise or Lugnut. Whenever the shot is on the closer angle, the resolution of the animation becomes blurrier. This could be because the closer angles are merely the same shot of the two, just zoomed in more, which would cause the resolution to decrease. (00:04:25)
14th Jul 2017
Continuity mistake: When Cruise and Lugnut are driving home on the road, there are road markings shown on the road that are about a foot long, with quite a thick paint job, but when Cruise starts to speed away from Lugnut later in the scene, the road markings are suddenly much longer, with a much thinner paint job. (00:04:00 - 00:05:35)
14th Jul 2017
Continuity mistake: After Cruise speeds away from Lugnut, Lugnut manages to catch up with him, who is still driving at fast speed. The shot cuts to an angle with them in centre of the frame and Cruise is suddenly driving at a much slower pace. (00:05:55)
