Been on my bucket list for some time now. Ship the ZR to Europe and go visit some of the ZR brethren in Europe, particularly in Italy. But not this year.

Wonder if we could reconfigure the Registry’s
Gulfstream G700 to carry a few Zs? It’s got the range
to get there with no fuel stops.
Maybe we could get Roy to be PIC?

Ugh. I can't watch videos like that without thinking of the consequences. The coolness just doesn't seem worth it to me. That's what race tracks are for.

Yes, I'm an old fuddy duddy.

That was fun to watch. Anybody know what car he was driving? The use of the siren threw me, unless of course the entire soundtrack is bogus.

LOL! Move over, Russ!
I have to admit MOST of the "heart in throat" that I got was fear of hitting some poor shmuck walking his dog or riding a bicycle! (I just hope it was filmed and then run in fast motion with the audio dubbed in after.) Yeah...racing IS for the track. The phrase: "Don't try this at home b/c I'm considered a professional!", comes to mind.

Paul,

That’s pretty typical driving in Rome. All of Italy is a road course. 🤪🤪
