Yes this is true, Lol. I believe it is a violation unless the source is credited and if it contained the complete original text. I added your link to the source page where the complete article is contained, and since these are only very small sections of the original I say leave until someone rewrites it. -Thunderlippps

Are you sure about the ultimate fate of the MM2 car? A friend of mine who lives in Texas now owns it (either the original or an insanely accurate fake) - I've sat in it - heard that huge supercharger running. It has the signatures of several of the actors and stuntmen inside and appears utterly authentic - except that it has been fitted with an aftermarket air conditioner. Here is a photo I took of it at the White Rock Lake car show in April this year (2006)... [1]. SteveBaker 19:05, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

It WAS possible to have a toggle-able supercharger at the time this movie was made. Such devices, activated and deactivated by means of clutch plate connecting to the drive, from the engine, have been in existance since the dawn of superchargers. no big deal at all. It is this very system that appears to be employed in the movie.
