Tight Budget
Many cars were demolished in the making of this action film. Because of the small budget, the vehicles used in the film were real decommissioned police cars. The motorcycles were late model demonstration units donated by Kawasaki.Mel Gibson was the only one who wore real leather, the others in the film wore vinyl costumes.
