Not the movie........the real event was on Ruby Wax the other night, a whole bunch of mega-rich Europeans racing from England to St Petersburg & back in a mixed bag of Beemers, Ferrari's, Lambo's, Audi's, a Rolls and a Limo!
It was awesome to watch, highlights included:
- The guy in the yellow Diablo at the start
- Loads of Ferraris doing donuts at various stages of the race
- The white Ferrari 355 Spyder that crashed at 150Mph, and the driver and passenger WALKED AWAY (!)
- The guys who "raced" in the limo and spent most of the time getting drunk in the back!
- The guy in the Audi RS4 who crashed 50 metres from the finish!
- The entire group of insanely fast cars getting speeding tickets from 2 Latvian cops in a Skoda!
- 2 racers being carjacked, and the security guy buying off the Russian cops (although this wasn't on camera, I thought it was funny).
If you didn't see it, ya missed out....wish I'd taped it.
