The poem that Cody Lambert (Red Mitchell) reads on the way to Cheyenne is actually a shortened collection of stanzas from a poem called "Legacy of a Rodeo Man" by Baxter Black. See more »Goofs
The morning after the cheating incident, when the guys are waiting for Lane at the van, a billboard is shown for Natural Bridge Caverns and Wildlife Park, which is located near San Antonio, Texas, but they were not in Texas. See more »Quotes

8 Seconds is probably my favorite film. It's not the best film on Earth, mind you; but it's the one I like watching the most. Luke Perry does a great job of portraying Lane Frost. It's a definite must-see for people who like films about love and friendship. The love story between Lane and Kelly shows all their ups and downs, through all of Lane's successes and failures (which happen in conjunction with the ups and downs in their personal lives). Then there is the friendship between Lane and Tuff Hedeman (Stephen Baldwin), which shows through even when Tuff is being hard on him. The film manages to avoid a lot of sentimentality and cliche film making. Worth your while to check it out.
