Besides which - they obviously abuse anything they get their hands on.

:shock: :shock:
Freaking amazing, dingo! The cars, the pics, the review.... I can't imagine how awesome it must have been take part on it. I really wish we had things like these over here... 
And you actually got drive a Stradale!! A FUCKING STRADALE!!! Well done dude, that's all I can say ( apart from the fact that you can't imagine how much I envy you right now ). But I bet that being back to the "real World" must suck right now, huh? 
Anyway, thanks for taking your time with sharing all of this with us, and congratulations on your unforgettable experience. :good:

Some journalist even wrote in an article that they get the car, ruin the tyres and give it back ...

Here is the first little teaser video thats been made available - only low-res but you get the idea.
Its from my camera mounted on the back of the 360 Spider with the Murcielago overtaking - http://www.sendmefile.com/00045577

He uses the GT2 as a daily driver, and the CS and GT3 as weekend track cars mainly.

They weren't reviewing any of the cars - just doing a story on what we got up too.

Only one WRX (a WRP10) ever planned to make the trip - but he was the son of the 550 owner so also pulled out when his dad wasn't coming.

wait till you hear the CS fly past - pure heaven!
Others to look forward too are a drag race between the CS and 360 Spider, GT2 v Murcielago and a 0-200kmh test by the GT2.

He used to own a VX Commodore (with the HSV kit) that had somewhere around 750hp.....painted in Ferrari red. That car was Car of the Year in Street Commodores magazine a few years ago.
The journo was Martin Donnon (I've just incriminated him for those burnouts ), and the snapper was Guy Bowden.
