Not in the near future, a base in London is very helpful.

Just watched Sam's latest offering with the FXX-K Evo. Great video and very informative, he seems to know his beans.

Ferrari also seem to be treating Sam very well. He could be onto a winner with the direction his channel has been going lately.

....and not a drive thru in sight.

Sitting on the wrong side won't be much use in an Italian drive thru and does he speak the lingo ?

Well it's your lucky day, he does.
But he doesn't use it as he said in the podcast with Sam. 'Behind the glass,' which is worth listening to some nice interviews.

TGE, don’t know if you’re still listening, but how are you managing to do so many modifications to your leased Golf GTI? Is invalidating the VW warranty by remapping it something the finance company have OK’d?

Well I sit corrected.
JWW certainly managed to convey the excitement and emotion of a 'normal' (ish) petrolhead getting a go in the highest of high end race cars. Wish it could've been longer though...

Absolutely - that was such a wonderful video to watch, James came across so well, conveyed the emotional aspect fantastically, not just the giggly excitement. Absolutely fantastic.

There was/is something about well off blokes wanting to come across as "one of us" that gets under my skin a bit, but the kind of stuff STG and JWW make is just so easy to watch, well made and of such variety, it consistently wins me over...more than that, especially with JWW's video last night, I was both very happy to see (in his edit) that he didn't stall or spin, but even better was that he certainly appeared/sounded like he gave it 'full beans' on the straights... I felt like it was me in there for a couple of seconds! superb stuff...

Yes, they'll be tuning the standard 730ho F12 engine to 780hp.

Consider for one moment that the IE is being built by Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus who have a very long well founded relationship with Ferrari.
I'd rather just have an SCG003 tbh or wait for the new centralized driving positioned 003 which is coming next year

I'll probably not remap it. Cba for any warranty rubbish.
Modifications if temporary are on the whole ok IMO - as long as you return the car 100% standard and undamaged.
Might just give it a lairy wrap for no reason and call it a day.
