IIRC, there was one street race where they had to go to yellow for a manhole cover weld that broke lose.

"Driven" is so out of whack as far as technical reality is concerned. The scene in the link starts out with drivers jumping into the cars and starting them up. Wrong. The cars back then needed an outboard starter. They then fly all over town with no glasses. At those supposed speeds, one spec would blind you.

Props to Detroit for trying. They get an E for effort but a D for quality of the street prep.

Hinch is normally fairly easy going and good natured so he must have been really upset...
