    I worked as an extra on Far and Away with Tom Cruise at one point I asked him a question about top gun .it struck a cord with him and he told me the story Ron Howard didn't interrupt him it took him about 10 or 15 minutes to tell me the answer while everybody didn't say a word.. the next day the AD. told every extra where to go and what to do then she said FRANK can I see you for a minute ? She said " yesterday when you talked to Tom Ron asked me to tell you not anymore cause you cost the production 18,000 dollars. " True story Jordan.. THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA...

      Yeah the rules those idiots in production put on others working around the films always say no eyes context don’t talk to them etc. that’s not always from the actors but the sheeple that are really not needed there in the first place. The one that told you that could probably be replaced and ever would still get done and they would save $250,000.

    I loved the Days of Thunder movie. I saw it in the theater and the seats would shake with what was going on on the screen. That's why JD Motorsports saved that car. The know it was in the movie and people would want to see it. Too bad people can't acted better than just go around filming things without asking. Makes your job more difficult. Thank you, JD Motorsports, for letting Jordan film the one car you have. Thanks for the great video, Jordan. You and Jah be safe and take care.

    You're in my town! I wished I could've seen you! I remember seeing them film and the ramps were there for years. The pond Tim drives up is still behind the development. I thought a crime happened when I first went by because of the cops and all the lights. Harry's house is in the mountains. Saw Tom when I worked security for Janet Jackson last season opener at pnc Charlotte. You can go in but be careful. My wife's foot went through the floor and almost everyone takes some wood when they visit. Worked with John C. Reilly on Talladega Nights.

    I posted this statement on Johnny chanel. I thought you'd like this. It seems so many people had touched the production in some way or another. Im happy to say that I printed thousands of images of that film.... I was assistant manager of the Jack Rabbit Photo lab in Florence, SC that the film crew used to develope all the still images that came from the Darlington track. We processed thousands of images from that production. We had to wait after hours before we could print the rolls of films; so the public wouldn't be able to see the pics of the sceens. Rumor has it that there are a few photo albums filled with the behind the sceens pics of that filming. Thats just a rumor though.

    It was a ride at Kings Island if you remember. you sat in seats like in a movie theater except they'd move around in front of a giant screen. and you'd feel like you were in the race. it was great stuff.. they should've kept it longer. but then they got the Tomb raider in it's place. it wasn't as fun. moved way different though.
