A series on Vice that goes into the F&F movies. They talk to producers, stunt coordinators, writers, the reporter that wrote the story that kicked it all off, some of the cast so far. They talk a lot about production, the stunts (the first movie was full of practical effects, including where the Charger flips over the Supra? Yeah, real stunt, the Charger did actually go over the Supra at around 70 mph).
I've seen the first 3 episodes on it, it's pretty good. There's a little filler on "callbacks" when they come back from commercial breaks, recapping what you just watched five minutes ago.
The street race scene -- the extras were mainly street racers in LA. One of the guys in there was a well known street racer, and by the third night of shooting they had over 100 extras there, in their own seriously dialed up cars (they didn't have the budget to make all their own cars everywhere). Neat tidbits I hadn't heard before.
