Visible crew/equipment: When 14k's navigator is killed by the Dreadnought's wheel spikes, it shreads the car's bodywork. When the camera zooms in on 14 through this hole, the camera shadow can be seen next to the hole. (01:13:00)

I own this movie on DVD.
This movie is definitely not high art by any stretch of the imagination. But it's a solid B movie staring Jason Statham and with fast cars and hot girls. It's hard to go wrong with that! As of writing this review, I've not yet seen the original 1975 Death Race movie to compare to this one. But for what this is, I liked it. It's a solid B movie for some mindless fun. Statham is great in this role, and it set the ground work for a continuing series... which sadly never lived up to this first film (first if not counting the 1975 original.)
I'd give this a solid 7 out of 10. Maybe 6.5.
Mistake Status: I plan to do the Death Race franchise for mistakes at some point. Including all 6 films and even Death Racers from The Asylum as a bonus.
Chosen answer: Yes the tires do appear to be shot out so that would make it a mistake.
