great read, it was great to see the charger ran rings around the mustang when the cameras were off. I think if you have not actually experienced those SF streets in person, you may not get how crazy they are. I had the pleasure living there for a while and it is truely shocking.

I always wondered how many noticed that the hubcaps on the charger re-attached themselves. Could never figure out the code on the build sheet for that.

They had to - The Charger lost 8 hub caps in the movie.

There is no code for the hub caps:
