As you may see from my previous post, I saw this movie last night, on dvd. I think I saw a goof, but not sure. During the scene where the big truck was chasing Taggart, right around the part where he was first rammed from behind, I heard the truck's motor rev up, like it was gaining speed BEFORE the driver put their foot on the gas. If I'm wrong, plz let me know.

Beyond that, the driver of the Mack kept stomping on the BRAKE to speed up. Older trucks had the brake valve mounted under the floor, the throttle and brake pedals looked the same. In the opening of Smokey and the Bandit the driver stepped on the gas to stop.
