Ah........I have spies everywhere! ;D

Seriously though, I seem to remember your post about an offer from Alex to strap a passenger in their V8 Star Omega for a "taxi ride". I've also spoken to him a couple of times by e-mail. I must admit I'm now a big fan of this car too having seen it in action - Christ it's quick!!
Unfortunately I didn't have a video recorder with me at Brands.

The damn things too quick - no one would see it anyway!!

I have some videos of it, but I need to get them converted out of stupid 3GP format. 120FPS video, but low resolution, so not very big.
