!Tropes for the film:
* TheSixties: Takes place in 1967.
* HomeByChristmas: Munro picks up a hitchhiking American airman who's on leave. The airman describes how they're going to start using something called "Agent Orange" in [[UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar Vietnam]], and it should end the war in six months.
* SoundtrackDissonance: After singing "You Are My Sunshine" Burt has a heart attack.
* {{Tagline}}: "Based on one hell of a true story".
* WhatAPieceOfJunk: Equally applied to the rebuilt motorcycle and its elderly, unathletic rider. Both perform (almost) flawlessly on race day.
