Just chilling in my flat bored, so i called a certain PHer who would like to remain anon (), who happens to be driving back from work near my flat.

He pick me up and we go for a cruise in the West End.

If anyone is worried that driving a Ferrari brings lots of negative looks... think again!

Every single person either waved, cheered or said complimentary things. We had one group of Italian guys in a minibus shout out 'bella italia' or something. We had two guys in a clapped out Almera try to drag us... so we went through another tunnel and treated them to full bore tubi bliss.

We had no end of girls wave and smile...

I took my digicam so i'll upload a short vid later... mainly of tunnel+tubi= type clips.

So driving a 360 in Soho... oh so childish but oh so much fun.

We didn't spend the whole evening in Soho, we headed off to find some tunnels for a bit of fun.

To be honest... i was p*ssing myself laughing most of the time hardly any of the footage is worthwhile.

I guess the owner will just have to take me for another filming ride

...the owner would be better off organising another night-out in the pub next door to where he lives

I am waiting for the day that Rico has some footage from one of his 'events'.

Didn't you make an excuse after silverstone too?

I'm shocked! I've got footage... its just crap!

I'm a perfectionist... only showing my best work... except in these cases there isn't any 'best' work...

Ok ok... i'll have another look through the footage and sort something out! Sheesh!

It's in .mov... i can't be bothered to change it. Download quicktime and you'll be fine.
