This is for you xphilly. In the 2001 daytona 500, on the bottom ream corner panal should have been the sonic resturant decal. in was the first and only race that in was on the black number three car. sonic stayed on the car with harvick the 2001 and 2002 seasons. in the movie the decal was not there. also in the scene where dale is getting high fives from everybody after the 1998 500 win, you can see a outside pitwall, daytona doesn't have one. im pretty sure i heard they shot i lot of the on track scenes like that at north wilksboro speedway. that would explain that. also in the pre race scenes for the 01 500 the starting grid wasnt right and the was cars not in that race there, most noticably the 75 of rick mast sporting the remington arms paint sceme, the car the was getting lapped by dale taking the caution and white flag to win the 98 500. the 75 was not in the 2001 500. more on the 01 grid, jr was pretty much in the right spot, he was 6th but dale was i think in fourth when he actually started 7th. there are most likely more, but that is all i can think of right now. yes i know, i am really anal when it comes to knowning nascar.
