** The cars being assembled in a barn were just one of [[GretzkyHasTheBall many inaccurate depictions of NASCAR]] in the film. Why this happened given the official cooperation of NASCAR and several racing teams, Tom Cruise's personal interest in racing as a hobby and the research he and Towne did is a matter of some artistic license, almost lampshaded in the movie itself by Cole Trickle's constant expressions of surprise that he's gotten this far in the sport despite limited experience. But it seemed on the set as if Scott and a lot of the actual crew just didn't care. So much so that, reportedly, only after principal photography wrapped did someone review the footage and find that they had neglected to shoot Cole Trickle's car crossing the finish line ... only the climactic shot of the entire movie.

* TroubledProduction: Per [[http://books.google.com/books?id=0OSXeiTCfLAC&pg=PA40 this old ''Spy'' article]]. Everyone thought getting the producers of ''Film/TopGun'' (Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer), its director (the late Tony Scott) and star (Creator/TomCruise) together, with a script by the legendary Creator/RobertTowne about a trendy sport (stock-car racing) couldn't miss. It was a commercial success indeed, despite bad reviews, but none of them ever worked all together again, because:

** Creator/RobertTowne (the ''writer'', mind you) had a barn built to his specifications while the production was filming outside Charlotte. He didn't like it and they didn't use it. When the crew moved down to Daytona for scenes there, another barn was built. Towne didn't like it either, and most of the barn scenes he had envisioned were thus dropped from the script.

* UnderageCasting: Then-23 year old Creator/NicoleKidman played a full-fledged neurosurgeon. At that age, she would be at most only halfway through medical school. Even coming from a country that doesn't require a college degree before entering medical school, she would still only be fresh out of school.
