Yup, did right the first time!  (hard to miss with a train tho.....)


I wonder though if that name was added in after for the video?  No proof he was the driver except a video on the internet.

He may get the cake to buy another from the outfit that released the 911 tape.  This must be against privacy laws...at least it would be in Canada.
If it flies, floats or f#%&s...rent it.

I wonder if it was even his car?

Wouldn't a Ferrari owner likely refer to his own car as "my" Ferrari rather than "the" Ferrari as this guy does?

My guess is that it need a new engine and this is the cheap way to get a replacement with a good motor.
