Kart racing isn't so easy, of course. And a goof I noticed: after the "Davies Comet" engine is installed, there is still footage of Watts racing with the Rotax Max. Also, kids that age do not race with MaxSr engines.
The indoor lapping in the shop was a bit nuts.
The racing sounds were overdubbed with car engines or something, because I drive a rotax kart and I have never heard it sound like that. These are two-cycle engines, and I rarely heard the noises I associate with these engines during any of the racing/driving footage.
Also, these karts--RotaxMax--do not make 105mph top speed.

This was a fascinating film--the story was captivating. Sadly, this very good movie was ruined by poor quality dubbed voices. I am sure much was lost in the translation. Moreover, they were taped in studio with very poor acoustics, the echo was more than audible.
The story in this film was fascinating; the English-language overdubbed dialogue was poor. Either the translators did a poor job or perhaps the original script did not lend itself to the ratings this movie have received.
