I watched it yet again. Thanks for the heads-up.
A question I've had for years: In the chase scene, camera is facing his Mustang, McQueen quickly flicks the car to the right - viewer's left - then quickly makes a hard left. I read or heard somewhere that that is a maneuver that "sets up the suspension", or some such. Any drivers know about that particular maneuver and just what it's supposed to do? I have noticed it in rallye car racing, also.
