We found a parking structure that allowed us to do it. "Spiro, for the look, was adamant about the first drop having seven cars in the air at the same time. "We had 17 or 18 cars that we threw out of the parking structure on top of our entourage," added Andy. I know why they put it in - it tells the story of all the cars merging - but I think they could have shortened that shot." "Everything is real, so that's the sequence that I'm really, really happy. "There's only one shot, one intersection shot, that's not real," Razatos said. But only one shot, which shows a fleet of cars converging into an intersection, was enhanced digitally. How real is it? While the crew took some flyby shots of New York landmarks, the majority of these scenes were filmed in Cleveland. Essentially it's still the real car and it's still the real angles, we just had to put the two together." This browser does not support the video tag. "We didn't have time to shoot the second one, so I said as long as you guys will use my angles, then we'll shoot another car off against a green screen so it's still a real car.

"The car that we pulled in that hit the wall only jumped in the air about five feet because the impact was so hard that it just bent the car in half," Gill said. To get the car jump right, Gill and his crew had to stitch two shots together. All the bumping and grinding, sliding around the corners in tight formats was all real." We had authentic fire for most of it, but when we started picking the speeds up, we found out the fire was getting inside the car, and the stunt guy just couldn't take it anymore, so we had to turn the fire down and augment the fire with a bigger fire for the ending. "The only thing we had trouble with was about the first quarter of the race, the car catches on fire. How real is it? "It was 99% all real," Jack Gill said.
