In a scene set in the mid-1970s, Dale Earnhardt places money that he won by winning a race on a table. On top of the stack is a $20 bill with a design that was introduced in 1998.

Many cars depicted in the 2001 Daytona 500 are incorrect in terms of body styles and paint schemes. Most noticeable are the cars of Jeff Gordon, Bobby Labonte, and Rusty Wallace. Gordon's car sports the old rainbow color scheme when 2001 was the first year his car sported the blue/red flame paint scheme. Bobby Labonte's Interstate Batteries car is Chevrolet Monte Carlo, his actual 2001 car was a Pontiac. Wallace's car in the film is a 1998 Ford Taurus using the old blue/white Miller Lite paint scheme (the actual car was a 2001 with an all-blue Miller Lite paint scheme).

Right after Brenda leaves him, and after Dale finishes in third place to finish in the money, Dale returns home and puts a stack of $20 bills on the table. The design of the twenties are the new design, created in 2003, while the scene takes place in the 1970s.

Dale Earnhardt: [helping Dale Jr. strap into a racecar] Wipe that look off your face, Dale. You'll wind up as ugly as me.

Dale Earnhardt: All I wanna do is race, Daddy.

Neil Bonnett: You pissed off a lot of people out there today, Earnhardt. You almost ran me over a couple times.
