[Heel n Toe]

I watched and recorded it on TCM tonight. It's been a while since I've seen it... such great racing scenes showing those beautiful old F1 cars.

Question... remember the scene with the exhaust piece falling off and bouncing/sliding back and down the Monza banking and hitting the Ferrari?

Have any of you ever read anything about how that was done? In today's world, I wouldn't think twice about it because I'd know it was CGI.

I wonder if they experimented with a rearward shot from the camera car, dropping a piece of exhaust (probably made of plastic) from a certain point on the banking until they knew exactly how far back the Ferrari should be in order for the piece to hit it.
