Cork , what a drive. The guy had to be crazy. Pete I had not seen this clip before. Turn your sound up and enjoy! On an August morning in 1978, French director Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a Ferrari 275 GTB and had a friend, a professional Formula 1 racer, drive at breakneck speed through the heart of Paris . The film was limited for technical reasons to 10 minutes. The driver barrel-assed all the way from Porte Dauphine (on the city's western edge, adjacent to the Bois de Bologne) to the Basilica Sacre Coeur in Montmartre . No streets were closed, for Lelouch was unable to obtain a permit. The driver completed the course in about 9 minutes, reaching nearly 140 mph in some stretches. The footage reveals him running real red lights, nearly hitting real pedestrians, and driving the wrong way up several one-way streets. Upon showing the film in public for the first time, Lelouch was arrested. He has never revealed the identity of the driver, and the film went underground until a DVD release a few years ago. Few things in the world sound as wonderful as a Ferrari engine at speed. Crank up your sound.... http://www.veoh.com/browse/videos/category/entertainment/watch/v596454yX 8nSphf# _____ Live traffic, local info, maps, directions and more with the NEW MapQuest Toolbar.
