just got this one from the shop
alu frame, carbon fork , it's quite light
did get an ATB style handle bar
i'm just starting off cycling, and the race handle bar looks just wrong without the click pedals/shoes, and i'm not quite ready to splash out on the full race gear, at least not untill i can actually do 30 clicks + at some decent speed...

ideally would have wanted this one

but since that sucker costs more then my 944S is worth, i figure it would be sortoff overdoing things just a liiiiitle bit :D

It needs a radar dish.;)

The car is digitized with a hand controlled scanning arm and then modeled in 3D Max.

what do they do on a bike?
is it like a new hype, like spinners for racing bikes?
where can i get em??

Hate to break it to you but that was not a ferrari but a Mercedes 450 SEL 6.9 used to film the run through the paris streets.

That's what Wilkipedia leans towards - see link which was provided, guess we will never know for sure.

Some people think the sound was added in afterwords in either case.

Check out this Google Map & Video Mash Up version.

I am more impressed with the video knowing it's a Mercedes not the Ferrari. At a few points the speeds don't seem right; rumor is they sped up parts of the video.

Interesting site, lots of weird aircraft.

I've never heard a Mercedes theory, where did you hear that? It doesn't sound like a Benz...

No the audio and speed of video dont match.

it also says at end of video remastered, so, they probably redid the audio..

also, this was a Film short, not just a fast run. at end, a woman walks up steps into the arms of driver, so its choreographed.

you can confirm the distance traveled on the map and you will see dude wasnt going 145MPH at any time.

never the less, Well done!

Or go to: Wikipedia rendezvous

At the bottom is a link to a "making of". In M. Lelouche's own words - in French. See Link
