I heard on the new this evening, a driver of a mini van and a videographer in the back tied with a harness had decided to open the rear hatch to record sports cars on the highway. I alway knew some idiots would copy what is done in the states without checking local laws. The driver learned the hard way, over 2-3K in fines and charged with multiple offences, car seized and driver's licence suspended for 1 year. Imagine having to take the bus from now on to go to work and in some trades that means you'll be spending half your pay check or more in taxi rides. His insurance will explode after that.

The videographer only got a safety belt ticket! :LOL:

Pretty dangerous to do it on public highway, even with the straps and all. Too many unknown factors beyond control. They should rent a racetrack or abandoned strips.

I'm the one who's planning a pleasure drive for 30+ Ferraris and other fast Italian cars. I went up a forest park to go see the lookout high in the hills that overlooks fields and river providing a great view. I went there to plan the route, to check the pavement etc, the hindrance of cyclist on this narrow road without any shoulder. I parked the car at the parking lot for a few minutes to check out the scenery and check the map, the road is a dead end but I noticed several cars and 2-3 motorcycle riders in racing suits come back a second time and park. That place seems like a popular place for souped up cars, other sports cars and a plethora of bikes to go out for a ride over there.

I started the car and I saw lots of people gathering up ahead getting their phones out to take pictures, at least a dozen. They had a glimpse of a single car unbeknownst there will be a ton more in a few weeks.

Man imagine the attention an Aventador or Murci or even the newer Temerario or Revuelto would get if the people in your town are going crazy over a Huracan. Must not be a lot of exotics where you live? My car hardly gets a second glance in the big city. But as we talked about before, color also plays a big factor. If mine was bright orange I'm sure I'd be getting harassed too! I still remember that story I shared about the yellow Gallardo stealing the show.

Be sure to share some pics of this big event. Sounds like it'll be a good time. Looking forward to seeing them even if it's going to be mostly Ferrari's ;)

An Aventador or even an STO they would go nuts! About the temerario at cars and coffee it didn't get much attention, the orange Revuelto got most of it. I don't even recount every things that happen when I go for a drive, the other day a guy runs to my cracked window with less than a 2" gap , his mouth near the gap exclaiming it was the most beautiful car he's ever seen.

As for exotics they are out there but you have to know the hotspots and be lucky to spot them in the evening. Especially the Ferraris which are garage kept 360 days a year so they are a rare sight. This year C8's are the prevailing cars on the road, next Porsches then Huracans. I see many Huracan's but I bet most people do not as they are actively aware of their surroundings like I am. While going to a client this morning in a building contractor's lot I saw a Urus, a modern Ferrari and an older orange Mac.

About 3 years ago in the Vette I was following a black Huracan on a monday evening for several blocks, no one ever noticed us, I mean no one. Sunday evening to Thursday I noticed people are mainly in their bubble lost in neander, when the weekend is up people are cheerful and notice more what's going on.

Still tonight I ended up behind a police SUV patrolling the hills so I stopped at a mini golf parking lot to lose sight of him as I had a feeling he/she was up to no good because he was slowing way down in front of me. I also needed to check out the map but the cop stopped ahead on the shoulder. I wonder if he was waiting for me to get back on the road to profile me. Some teens came up to my window, one guy asked what was the mileage on the car and he said not bad when I told him. I asked him is that was any good? He didn't answer. The next one asked if I wanted to trade for his mountain bike. I replied back in the day I had one too. I guess the cop got tired of waiting for me so he took off.

As for the event I made a thread of last year's weekend. The one in 2024 I had to delete because of a stalker on the other forum.
