1* Mike Butt from Season 5 is the nephew of Canadian comedian [[Series/CornerGas Brent Butt.]]
2* InMemoriam: One episode of Season 5 ends with one for [[spoiler: Crystal's]] brother-in-law, who was killed in a motorcycle accident.
3* IronyAsSheIsCast: Andrew Younghusband has admitted to hating driving and not really caring about cars overall.
4* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Discovery Canada apparently agreed to commission a Season 15 at first, and a casting call for said season went out in early 2019, but the network evidently later changed their minds and pulled the plug on the series. Andrew Younghusband indicated in the Facebook post announcing the show's cancellation that they hadn't given any reason for doing so. Though it is possible that, due to the amount of cars that get wrecked by the drivers per season, costs may have played a role in the decision.
5* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
6** Season 4 Curt auditioned for Season 3, but was not accepted until the following year.
7** Likewise, Season 10 Siham was originally considered for Season 8, but she turned it down.
8** Flora was approached for Ever, but refused to return.
9** Krystal in Season 12 was originally nominated by her then-girlfriend, but their breakup led to her brother taking the spot as her nominator on the show.
10** Similarly, Adam and Ashley both had different nominators in their video than the ones who appeared on the show (Adam with his sister instead of their father, and Ashley with her boyfriend rather than Jillian).
