Anyone notice the big rig scaffolding set up in the background (right side) of the opening scene with the Porsche heading up the sandy highway..?Looks like maybe a rig used (probably same-day shooting) for the shots of the overhead long shots of the Daytona's drives to/from the same shootout scenes with Nugent's 'Charlie' persona....Good day !

Absolutely! Take a look at our glossary for this ep. and see the screen shots there at the bottom. If you would like to add more screen shots to the glossary then what you need to do is take the screen shots you want and save them as a JPEG file. Then email them to me as an attachment. I will watermark them and add them to the server for you.timm525@miami-vice.ws

This is an industrial area and that rig is part of the thing that runs along the side of the road, perhaps a rail/tram/transport mechanism. The rig you spotted in the scene can be seen here:link

Cool.But I still would like to go for a drive on that road someday. What security guard would we have to bribe to get to do a midnight run (and how much $ )?

Just send it to me c/o this website. Maybe about $25. When you get there, just tell them that I said it was OK.

The IMDB for that episode theorized that they shot a scene where he fell into the pool and later cut it out.

Maybe he got super sweaty all the sudden with the heat. :)

I take that turnpike to work every day. No joke, "Angry Young Man" starts playing in my head EVERY time I drive past it, lol. One of these days I'm gonna stop my car on the side of the road (while dressed in my white suit of course), during sunset (it faces west) and snap a pic for you guys.
