Trivia

 * Kakkoi's first name is incorrectly spelled in the Grand Prix racer list from the movie and the PS2 version of the game, as the correct spelling of his name is "Kakkoii." The game's credits spell his first name correctly.
 * "Kakkoii" is Japanese for "cool" or "handsome", while "Teppodama" is a Yakuza term which literally translates to "rifle ball", as all followers are teppodama, bullets to be fired by their boss. The bullet does not think of itself; it is simply aimed and released.
 * He is listed in the film's credits as "Yakuza Driver".
 * The reason for the striking change in his appearance between the film and the videogame is most likely because the art from the game was based on Alice Ebling's work (the person responsible for the costume illustrations). Kakkoi in her original art looks remarkably similar to the one from the game.
 * In the movie's script, Kakkoi has a removed scene where he attempts to assassinate Speed in the locker room with a razor blade, before being cut-off by Grey Ghost, who starts a conversation with Speed.
