that looked quite quick, must of been Sarah driving

[fatboy18]

That must be the narrow bit of the Mulsanne Straight! Nice one Tom

[Viper]

it looks like a main road in New Zealand to me,
them number plates are a bit of a give away

[fatboy18]

Nope, the main road in New Zealands narrower than that!!!

WHAT THE F@~#!!!!! Never seen that vid! Nice find BAZ, your a star mate

And now the whole world knows I can`t drive, I missed 3rd gear not just once but twice I just love that first return run, I think I was in the "sweet spot" as I passed the vid camara

That was the last time VENOM 500 was driven in N.Zealand, Mosgiel. I was giving some friends a final blast in it before the container arrived the following day. The funny thing was that we could only risk two "runs" before moving off as the cops had been after the Venom for months, we moved to several locations during that evening so not to get fined/banned. I just hope the N.Z cops see this video as there be real pissed, if they check the reg on the Venom there see it still has outstanding fines!

CATCH ME IF YOU CAN!


Thanks for posting that BAZ, it brought back some good memories (not the unfair speeding tickets though:frown) It also makes me think we won`t be selling Venom after all, theres just no other car like a Viper! But I guess you guys already know that!

Anyone know where I can get a B&M shifter and costs?

[V1PER]

Got mine from USAutomotive in Bedford.....There UK supliers had some on the shelf and had them for a year or two so got a blinding price .....

[GravelBen]

mmmmm that sounds


have to turn it up pretty loud to replicate the sound on the inside though

[zed sump]

sound on youtube's usually nothing like the real thing, so that must be mindblowing to hear on the roadside will you be on a track anytime soon Tom?

[Viper]

you could get some practice here Tom before TOTB,
just up the road from you as well
