That's a cool video & a great song, how long did it take to shoot the video??

Love the Torino, tough looking motor do you still have it & did you beat the caravan at the drags ?:lol:

it took a full day to shoot the video, starting at 8 in the morning (i set off from home at midnight).we finished filming at around 11 pm, and i lunched the gearbox about 40 miles from home !!
It was a once in a lifetime experience though and something to tell the grandkids about in 20 years time though.
I'm afraid i don't own the car anymore, i sold it back in October last year, and the guy who bought it, an officer in the RAF, drove it to Newcastle, onto a ferry to Holland, then drove across to his base in Germany !(i bet that was expensive, i averaged aroun 10 mpg out of that car !!!)





and yes, i beat the caravan......even though the nitrous bottle was empty........and he had a holeshot !! lol
