First mini turbo to get in the 12's & site perv

Herefordshire

I went in a Ferrari tonight!!


HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw my mate in it, i havent seen him for about 6 months and hes had it for three

we'd been parked up for a 2 mins and no word of a lie 5 people had stopped to take pics, and one absolute hottie pulled up and asked for a go, he said he couldnt, but she gave him her no and said "make sure you ring me over the weekend"

From the dash board i can tell you its a 360 spyder, and the sound is AMAZING!!! so much better than straight cut gears, and the paddle shift sounds awesome when you change down

However the best thing is the attention from females it gets, even with me in the passenger seat it was getting looks a plenty, loads of comments from the ladies-even i could get success from one

however the funniest story was the fact he once popped to morrisons in it and 2 girls offered him a threesome!!!!hahaha

ill never forget that noise of the engine behind you ear, i wish i could of seen how fast we were going, but i could only see from 180mph onwards on the speedo

F40 man myself...totally awesome.
I think people that build models like that are more talented than the original manufacturers.
Priceless!

Love F40s as well!! There was 27 F40s together at the last race meeting i was at. It was so cool seeing so many of them together at once. Love the scale model though, the working gearbox and clutch must have been evil to make!

I've been thinking...

If the guy spent his 20,000 hours of labour at Burger King, earning himself £5 an hour.

He would have made enough money to buy a real Ferrari!

Instead, he has now got to build a machine that can shirnk himself down to 4" tall so that he can drive the bugger!

Oh well, only another 20,000 hours to build that I suppose?!


On a serious note, that is a very impressive piece of engineering genius! Pats on the back all round!

In the 13's at last!.. Just

I saw that on clarkson's "Extreme Machines" series (nearly ten years ago?!). Somewhere, in the depths I still have it on tape, with the rest of the series. Quite a few times I've thought about building a 1:3 scale 1275S. Maybe when I win the lottery and I have some time on my hands... :lol:
