Some video of the start of the Players Run in LA.

Some noteworthy PCars are the 2CGTs, a gorgeous black 959, a Turbo S Cab, and my brand new (to me) RTurbo .

Wish I was there! Looks like a small turnout this year- surprisingly small number Lambos.

The green f430 is ruined. I don't say that about many cars, but that is hideous.

ok, that was really cool, but I have a question, with millions of dollars in exotic cars, somebody couldn't make a simple wooden ramp for the driveway to avoid scraping? Someone dropped the ball on that one. I cringed at the CGT and others scraping. It's needless abuse, when all they had to do was take a sheet of plywood and shim it underneath to accomodate the cars, paint the ramp a nice color and put the Players Run decals on it so it's not tacky. Other than that, great vid.

I heard about the run you had with the Diablo from Jin. I need to see your RUF when you get back home.
