Nice quality but no car sound

Another short one of GT2 and F40 hill climbing with sound

Is this from their Monaco blast?

mindgam3 · 05-08-2005, 11:59 AM

Yeah - repost?

TT · 05-08-2005, 12:05 PM

Nono, it's just that I didn't see any footage (pics or vids) from their last trip

They are still quite stealth compared to the Gumball

Hi guys.

Thats my website your linking to.

We have another blast planned for August.

The rumour is that were heading to Italy this time, and my F40 may be going home

I have more vids but they are kind of incriminating so i'll leave those for close friends.

As for being stealth, you better believe it! Who wants stickers and the attention from the authorities. Just a group of like minded individuals going out for a long weekend blast 8)

We all know that the Police have better things to do than chase after us :roll:

Take care

PS A lot of people have asked why i didn't leave the sound in through the tunnels. 1) Wind noise on the camera mic made it sound crap, 2) I doubled the speed of the film on the roads, nothing more boring than seeing someone drive mile after mile.

Certainly appears to be more hot ladies than other car rallies!!!!

Nice pictures

Minacious · 05-11-2005, 06:04 PM

Some pretty nice curves going on there. The routes taken looked like they'd be pretty fun to take as well. You can just never get enough of this type of this stuff.

fireguy · 05-11-2005, 07:08 PM

great stuff albert v8.....best of luck on the next run; i'm sure you'll have a blast.

one question, was anyone able to keep with your f40 on the open road?

Albert V8 · 05-12-2005, 03:17 AM

Sadly i got whipped twice by a GT2 :shock:

But i think i have something wrong with my boost levels on the turbos.

We shall address and report after the next run.

Thanks for your kind comments guys 8)

Went to pick the Spec on my new F430 yesterday.

I so nearly went for the same spec as the black one with black leather, yellow stiching, yellow brake callipers and manual gearbox.

But i had this image of the great Enzo Ferrari shaking his head in disappointment at me. So Rosso Corsa it is 8)

Albert, what about a nice topic in the "what you drive" section with a bunch of pics of your F40 (reading the only rule before posting LOL

). Not wanting to be rude or anything, but on JW, we like to be as sure as possible about the claims ppl throw around about their cars

we had too many bullshitters, and it's so easy to do it on the net.
As the real owner of the car, one must understand it is to protect not only us, but him too

Now for the Italian run, I emailed the organizers asking if there will be a checkpoint or a night spent in Switzerland. The answer was "no". but can I maybe ask you, if the route will be known before the start, to let me maybe know about it and the checkpoints, to see if I could catch up with you guys and take some pics for my website?

Albert V8 · 05-12-2005, 09:33 AM

No bullshit here mate.

As for the Drivers Run and knowing where were going. You don't find out until we board the Eurotunnel.

As for Davy being a little secretive, he's just protecting us.Not that we'd ever dream of going above the speed limits. 8)

As for a stop in Switzerland, don't you hang people for exceeding the speed limit there

In fact don't you just shoot
them for having a combustion engine which polutes the atmosphere

TT · 05-12-2005, 09:50 AM

As always, I wasn't calling it bullshit at all

but around here, untill the custom shot isn't provided ( http://www.motorworld.net/forum/show...=124881#124881 ), we'd rather not see too much chit chat about members' cars, that's all.

And yes, he explained me the policies and I understand of course, it is just too bad to know afterward that many nice cars passed close to me but I missed them

You should avoid posting pics even afterward, to avoid stabbing car nuts into the depths of their hearts

And yes, around here obviously if you are caught, it isn't that funny.. I just saw my license suspended for a month some months ago (178 km/h in a 120 zone)...

But you can still see plenty of nice cars like these (I took this pic yesterday):

So you shouldn't be shy

come in Switzerland one day

Anyway it's just a few km untill you will be on another country again

sikx5 · 05-12-2005, 09:53 AM

Welcome to JW Albert, That is one beautiful machine you have there mate, dont be shy to post hi-res pictures!!

Albert V8 · 05-12-2005, 09:54 AM

Quite a line up.

I believe thats a F430 followed by a MC12 & then an Enzo.

Switzerland, not short of a shilling or two
