I am pretty sure this movie is just an excuse to reuse the Death Race sets from 2 years prior. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.38.51.98 (talk) 00:17, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
... and the cars. Drsruli (talk) 04:02, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
Deletion
editThe deletion tag was added and said that the page was about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content. This is nonsense, the article is about a film. The article also contains many reliable references, and there are many more references available on the internet if people wish to expand the page furhter. The film has also finished filming and is in post production, meaning that it fits Wikipedia's critera that for a film article to be created it must at least have begun filming. Therefore the film deserves its own article. I see no reason why it should not be deleted. The Editor 155 (talk) 08:40, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
Speaking of deletion, there used to be a section that contained what cars were used and what modifications and weapons they had and who drove them. What happened to that? NeoRewerts (talk) 22:34, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
Release
editWhen was the movie actually released? --Boycool (talk) 20:34, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- It's a direct to DVD movie, it's release date is the day the movie goes on sale. Uksam88 (talk) 18:46, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Plot
editDoes the plot really end with him checking up on Katrina? Is there really no Death Race in Death Race 2? --Boycool (talk) 12:03, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
Twisted Metal referance?
editIs Markus Kane nammed after the recurring Marcus Kane character from Twisted Metal?
Countries

- Comment: Hoping WP:IAR can be applied to this nomination. I made my first edit to this article last January but only to modify the infobox image file name following a file upload of an actual cover artwork for the movie (diff). On June 18 I made the same edit but then suddenly realized the article's body was essentially a mess (diff), hence the expansion. Bottomline is my edits prior to the expansion were relatively minor and I don't believe they're blatant violation of the newness criterion. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 10:09, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

- @Nineteen Ninety-Four guy: Article was 5221 characters preexpansion (18 June) and is 11143 characters now. I suggest that you nominate this for WP:GA.--Launchballer 12:43, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Launchballer: Out of curiosity, how much characters should I have provided to make this 5x? Because based on my calculations, I've added 5,922 characters, which is roughly 51% expansion. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 12:53, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- 26105, so you'd need a further 14962.--Launchballer 13:03, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- I see. You may close this, thanks. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 13:05, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
