I got this in an email. The video link is at the bottom
---------------------- Great commercial UR GONNA LUV IT! - - The link is to a Shell commercial shown in Europe. Ostensibly they're selling gasoline, but the Ferraris used in the video steal the show. Ferrari pulled several of their race-cars from various ages out of storage, flew them around the world, and filmed them running through the streets of Rome , Rio , New York , Hong Kong and Monaco . No CGI - these are the original cars on the original streets. The best part is the sound - from the basso-profundo notes of the early, front-engine era, each scene cuts to a later and later generation, ending with the banshee-wail of a modern F1 car. The sounds alone bring a tear to the eye. Even if you're not a gearhead, this video will stir the soul... There's just something about 3L's and 14,000 RPM that's music to your ears!!! Click on the box with 4 arrows at bottom right of video for full screen....... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_kwxzU4wL4 |

From Rod Bean
So I have now joined to modern era and have put something on YouTube. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUTWODdIrjo
I instructed at the Maximum Grip track day event on 6/27/10 at Willow Springs and toward the end of the day, I gave some rides after most of the people had left. This video is with Aram's (the organizer) girlfriend, Amalya, riding along. It was a very hot day and I had to take two cool-off laps after every two hot laps but the car was terrific, as usual. Apologies if this video has flaws. I haven't learned how to edit, etc. yet. Not perfect laps... the second one is better.... but for those who are unfamiliar with this stuff, you can get some idea of how much fun it is. Rod The stock-Corvette hot laps end at about 3:55 of the 8:49 video. Big Willow hasn't changed much since July, 1969, when Bill Swan and I ran the 3-hour enduro in my MGB (seventh overall out of about 27 entries, second in class), nor since 1971 when I had the Solo I B-sedan lap record in my Vega Kammback (you could look it up).
