The small Honda car from the road rage incident is seen being towed away from roadside, yet 3 seconds later when the camera shows the road the tow truck was entering, it has disappeared.
Stu Nahan is heard narrating while the establishing shots of the airplane jump are made. There is no one on the ramp with the red white and blue banners in these shots. In the subsequent scene, Nahan while still narrating has appeared with a camera crew at the top of this ramp.
During the airplane jump, the banners appear and disappear from the landing ramp.
Actual nitroglycerin bottles have detailed labels, not just a label with the word nitroglycerin.
The CHP does not dispatch officers to property damage complaints involving deranged persons in parking lots. This type of complaint would be handled by local law enforcement.
Stu Nahan's voice is heard amplified while he sets up the airplane jump even though there is no amplifier where he is standing on the ramp. When the camera angle changes to a close-up, his voice is no longer amplified even though he is using the same microphone.
The airplane jump is supposed to take place at Shake's ranch, and some shots show it is at a ranch. When the crowd is seen, there are other airplanes in the background, indicating that footage was from an air show.
There was no reason to stop pursuit of the car after the parking lot vandalism. The garbage truck was in the way momentarily, but the officers had a line of sight to where the car went and could have easily caught up to it on their motorcycles.
The Honda driver tells Poncherello and Nelson he heard the driver that ran him off the road say Next time buy a big one. This was not said until the other car was some distance away. Since the Honda was spun 180 degrees, the passenger side was next to the road. The passenger side window of the Honda was up, so the driver could not have heard this.
A CHP dispatcher tells Ponch and Nelson (15-Mary-6 and 15-Mary-7, respectively) to respond to vandalism at a car dealership, but the dispatcher would have no way of knowing where Ponch and Nelson are. Normally, a dispatcher would ask for assistance from any units in the vicinity, and responding units would call in.
Also, there's no reason CHP officers would specifically be called upon to respond to reports of vandalism. The local law-enforcement agency (either a policy department or sheriff's deputies) would respond.

Klane tells Harlan and Linahan that he spent 15 years on a V-8 engine assembly line before he was laid off. No domestic automakers had engine plants in California during this time. The GM South Gate assembly plant in the Los Angeles are did close in 1982, and the Van Nuys plant was in operation until 1992, however both built vehicles, not engines.
The film footage of the car carrier jump narrated by Harlan contains multiple camera angles, yet no cameras were present when the jump took place.
No journalist would air an interview where the subject kept revving a motorcycle engine and drowning out their voice, as the audio would be unusable.
At the initial crash scene, there are two CHP motorcycles and no patrol cars, yet there are two motorcycle officers (Grossman and Linahan, noted by their boots) and one car officer.
When visiting Nicky's home, Ponch parks his cycle blocking the mailbox. That is something a police officer would not do unless it was an emergency situation.
