Ferrari 599 GTO - Tunnel Run

[sneaky schnell]

I have just uploaded my first youtube clip.

A couple of weeks ago and friend and I went on the Irish Cannonball Rally in aid of Barretstown House.

Barretstown is a camp that provides Therapeutic Recreation programmes for children with serious illnesses, and their families. Children and families come to Barretstown free of charge and the project is entirely supported by donations and fundraising efforts like the Cannonball Rally

Please find my short clip below. Enjoy.

Just awesome. Made my evening.

Unbelievable noise! Super.

Lovely sound! The popping on gear change is wonderful!!

I just posted this clip on Club Scuderia and was called a 'nob' and then I was accused of being an 'idiot giving it large' with a 'barry exhaust'.

While we were giving it a bit, I don't really see the problem. We were under police supervision and were being encouraged to make a bit of noise. The other cars in the clip were also with us (except the Merc and the end).

Could any CS posters confirm if this is the standard Club Scuderia welcome that should be expected?

Although I find the reaction funny, I'm a bit put out.

I love forums like that - an owners club type forum where less than 1% of the members actually own the car involved...

I can only presume the one doing the name calling ain't got a GTO.

Thank you for a sane and friendly response. I feel much better now.

I think that's probably it. He may well own a Mondial.

Unfortunately that thread proves everything that's wrong with CS, very clicky and full of people who think by making 'controversial' posts they're the funniest person on earth!

Shame really as there's some great info over there, but the above keeps a lot of people away. Well that and the fighting amongst 'The Commitee!'.

Awesome, sounds like perfection If I was lucky enough to own a supercar such as the 599 GTO I would find every tunnel in the country!! thank you for sharing

Dont you mean a Mondeo!! Great video and a noble cause. Just ignore the pondlife and find a longer tunnel!

Mondial are a rare Italian Superbike aren't they?

[macey_j2]

Ignore the haters. From the extracts you posted, it's clear to anyone on here that they're talking sh*t. It sounded good! Now go wind up the neighbours of the hindhead tunnel! :P

I saw your post, thought the reply was a pretty shocking way to respond to someone that has just joined up.

[milk2sugars]

Well I think it was a great vid! Well done!

[weepee]

Did the same tunnel in the CS and was asked to go back and do it again. so i did.

What a knob! Probably doesn't own a Ferrari and is just jealous?

[Mx5guy]

Fantastic - the only thing better would have been being there and hearing it in the person! I don't get why someone would complain about it who likes cars - what is the point in the car if you don't make a bit of noise sometime?!

[suddin7]

could listen to that engine all day long
