There were serious inaccuracies about the performance of those cars in the movie. A turbo N20 Jetta would likely run 13's, not 10's. Although I'm sure there is an Eclipse in the 10's somewhere, most have to ditch the stock stuff when they hit the 12's cause they can't hold together. The fastest rotory RX7 in the world could barely get into the 9's just a year or so ago. I'm talking like 9.96. That was in a drag setup.

Other than the cars being wrong, it brings street racing into the light as an operation run by hooligans and serious criminals. It paints a bad picture of those of us just looking for fun when the track is better than $100 and over 3hrs away.
