Power Engineering Large Vid's
Chaps,
For those of us with large internet pipes feel free to log onto. http://www.m3euro.com I've put the small and large PE rolling road vid's up. It's also behind a 4mb internet link :) Beware one of them is 55mb Cheers Gareth |

RE: Power Engineering Large Vid's
Who's driving in 'Gareth's driving movie'? Whoever they are they look far too young to be behind the wheel of such a potent beast!
It certainly sounds fast...but then so does my 360 :) As long as it sounds fast it doesnt matter how fast it really goes, right? :) cheers james

RE: Power Engineering Large Vid's
That's Gareth and I'm the one ****ting myself in the passenger seat, had been passed at roughly 170mph by a Ferrari 360 and Porsche GT2 racing eachother and I think that was just about enough to finish me off :)
Gareth's not THAT young..I'm worse :) He has 2 kids and a woman! |

RE: Power Engineering Large Vid's
Good to put a face to a name (and a scared voice in your case!) :)
Im guessing you werent as scared as I was last summer being taken for a trip in a totally stock 'E' plate 1.0 mini city down a huge hill at 85mph. Doesnt sound scary...but it IS..especially as we had had the brakes off that morning :) Anyway, I must meet some of you crazy kids some time. AFAIK its only me and Pete M down here in the south west, but if you folk are heading down this way for an event or whatever, we should be able to sort something out. Unfortunatly, I joined the forum just after the haynes trip. :( cheers james

I dont think I'm that young... Well hmmm 23 :)
Alex is even younger... he's only 12 :) (Sorry mate) I also need to point out that these videos were filmed on a private road away from the public highway. The craziest place i've been to in Enland has to Machester. The drivers are complete nutters.... COOL! ;) Gareth |

LOL! he knows some naughty words for one so young....! >I also need to point out that these videos were filmed on a >private road away from the public highway. Would that be the same variety of private road which clearly has a 40 limit sign in the 0-60 run video? :) The irony is that when we go out locally for a late night drive the only 40+ roads for miles are lanes - and which is safer?! still the lanes are fun - 50mph with the undergrowth hitting both sides of the car :) cheers james
