Framed by an ex-partner for a murder he did not commit, Tobey Marshall, a financially struggling custom-car builder and street-racer, spends two years in jail thinking about one moment.

Fresh out of prison he reacquires the fastest car his workshop ever built and sold, and seeks to enter a secretive and extremely high-stakes race known as The DeLeon. His purpose; redemption, recognition from the world of racing and to solve his problems.

Goofs The Sesto Elemento that Dino drives does not have glass electric windows - a real Elemento has plastic windows with a little slider for the driver to talk.

Need For Speed is probably one of the least videogames that deserve an actual film adaptation. There's only two or so games of the franchise that have a storyline and they're nowhere as remarkable as the actual gameplay.

For sure, this film takes none of the source material other than the cars and the title. The story here is mostly a straightforward chase reveled with elemental cosmic hate grown by revenge. Personally I was always a Carroll Shelby fan, and when Carroll passed away it hit me hard; he was such an innovator.

Plus, the Mustang is the car Steve McQueen drove. I think it's as cool as ass. Bullitt set the tone for car culture movies. And the Mustang in NfS is the Bullitt car if you think about it - it was a '68 Mustang in a '68 movie.

I thought if I'm doing a movie, lets make it a Mustang, right? SW: We built eight Mustangs, and we wrecked six. Five of them were complete write-offs.

The one that did that jump didn't want to see the light of day afterwards, for example. The others went in straight T-bone accidents.

We were really pushing the envelope. It was a bummer to see that happen to these cars, but it's part of the deal. Overall I'd say we destroyed just under cars. I don't know the full body count, but I mean There's a homage to that in NfS too. SW: The cars in the movie are all real. The ones we wrecked aren't real, obviously, because I didn't want to wreck the real cars, because I felt they were art pieces.

The McLaren P1 was the only real car we couldn't get. TG: How did you get the manufacturers to play along and build these exact replicas to destroy? We had to sign over huge NDAs, because they're giving over their magic to us. I mean, that was a real Lamborghini Sesto Elemento, man. Lamborghini solicited us, there are only three of them, and we got one of them. SW: There are no Koenigseggs in America, man. At the time we were filming they weren't allowed over in the States.

They couldn't get the airbag clearance. A lot of the audience won't have seen a Koenigsegg. We had some of the top drivers in the world, and they were like kids in a candy store. But those kit cars would step out on you really fast because the ass-end was so light. For movies, you want the ass-end to step out. It's sexier looking. But if you've got say, a four-wheel-drive car, that's hard to show on screen.

Those cars are not designed like that. You can't drift a Veyron like that. To a camera, it doesn't look as exciting when they hug and stick. SW: We built a supercharged Mustang with Steve Saleen to keep up with the racecars, and we modified the hell out of it.
