I came to reading a book, which I am not much of a book reader but a very good one to try is called The Driver. It is about a year old now and is the true story of Alex Roy and his hunt to break the transcontinental time record. That time being 32 hours 7 minutes, which starts in New York City, and goes to a pier in California. For those of you that know about the Gumball 3000, or any other rally Alex comes from that area. But what really struck me was a story in the book who did one lap of Paris in 7 minutes. I included the video which was taken in the late 70's or early 80's on the front bumper but don't quote me on the time frame. It is my understanding that the car is a Mercedes and NOT a Ferrari which it sounds very close to. Before I get the hate on how dangerous this is, I understand these people are doing illegel things, but in Alex's case the work and determination has to be respected, and the other film I have included is just absolute skill when it comes to driving on city streets. Enjoy:D

Wow, sure had to run a lot of red lights, I figured he would buy the ranch sooner or later - wicked driving though, not something I would even dream about contemplating. Crazy.

It said in the book that it was a Mercedes, Roy was attempting to do a very similiar thing by doing a lap of Manhattan in 27 min, he said the best time would be around 7am on sunday to avoid the most traffic, and use friends as construction workers to keep pedestrians back it order to keep the streets clear
