Although a fantastic display of cars, hopefully the loon in the GT2 will show them how it's done.

I'm still sure it's you Daz. I think you've cunningly invented this bloke and the company he runs as a cover for your high speed capers.

Come on mate, you've been caught. Time to confess!

P.S 5 Enzos, 3 Macs and 2 Zondas. Not sure how happy I'd be if I shelled out on the above cars and all 9 other buggers turned up in the same car.

I trust our friend and unknowing comdeic genius Arthur will be in the Koen? I can see one of the big boy cars getting written off. If you've got the fastest car there is little to trouble you. When you've got 10 other cars which have the "some of the fastest in the world" title someone will surely over do it. Hope not though and look forward to the footage.

What a line-up. I'll be pre-ordering that DVD as well then!

Not to my knowledge, although suprisingly enough I'm usually the last person he thinks of telling when he gets a new motor!

Current list:

Lamborghini Gallardo
Porsche GT-2
BMW M5
Audi A3 S3

And a Porsche GT3 potentially on the horizon.

Did he get insurance for the American Gumballs then? Heard rumours he didn't?

When's the scheduled finish date? It's cheaper to fly to Cannes (well, Nice) than Paris.

I have several movies he e-mailed me that his co-driver shot whilst they were in the states. They make pretty good viewing. In one he tries to squeeze 210MPH out of his car on a Miami Freeway, but only manages 206

He is a true ambassador.

How on earth do you get your car out of customs sans insurance docs? Surely if you get done for speeding there will be problems.
