I've got the Origin b2 and the LRC100 fitted to the Tuscan. They work very well. You'd never spot the jammer unless I told you to look. Very discreet. The b2 is also good as it sits in a cradle (used for the connections) and just pulls out to remove from the car (about the size of a pocket pager) Couple of pictures here: http://www.sleepy-fish.com/images/otherimages/DSCN2404.JPG http://www.sleepy-fish.com/images/otherimages/DSCN2403.JPG And here is the video of the radar detector parts from last nights 5th Gear: http://www.sleepy-fish.com/other_videos/5th_Gear_Radar_Detectors.wmv LB PS To put the videos onto a DVD is not difficult, but they would only be data files, ie the same quality as the web versions, and only viewable through a PC, as the original format is either .wmv or .mpg. The source material needs to be uncompressed .avi to make a DVD that will work in a home DVD player for viewing on TV. The only videos I have that will work on DVD are my Surrey Run videos. Hope this helps, LB | ||

Did anyone see those laser jammers ? Anyone got any experience of using one - look like they could be quite useful. Where could you fit one on a 355 ? | ||

Thanks Tony, Spider emailed me. I don't think I can make it. Although my 550 is now up and running Chelsea are playing at home. Some would say, that's a bad choice, but what can I tell yer. I missed the last one as well. Hope to meet up on the next one. I tend to ride out most Sunday mornings. Mostly down to Bury Hill on the A29/SouthDowns. On my own (very sad) !. Thanks Wazza | ||

Luca, What would it cost me if you put all the mpeg files on a DVD in the non tvr section on a DVD ??? I would love to be able to keep all these clips on a DVD to watch a large TV... Is it possible ??? | ||

Hi there, glad you like my little video efforts. It never ceases to amaze me how quickly some folks find the link. It was only added to my site late last night. For your future information...I'll be adding all the best bits from 5th Gear each week. Next week should be good....test drive of the TVR T350. Also, if its Ferrari with a Tubi you want to hear, check out the Surrey Run 4 video on my site, there's a fantastic 355 in it, with its best appearance acclerating through a sleepy village just after dawn. Just a note though, the low quality .wmv version has poor sound but allows non-broadband users to just about download it. The larger version has much better sound and should do the Ferrari justice. There's also a DVD for those who love the download, but want top quality. Best regards Luca Brazzi http://www.sleepy-fish.com/video_page.htm and http://www.sleepy-fish.com/other_videos.htm Medium Quality www.sleepy-fish.com/images/videos/TVRs/SurreyRun4_hq.wmv (113,393Kb) (Movie - 43min 50sec) Low Quality www.sleepy-fish.com/images/videos/TVRs/SurreyRun4.wmv (31,859Kb) (Movie - 43min 50sec) LB | ||

Tony, It is a sports exhaust specially made for the Stradale and comes as standard. Hard to believe but true... I know because i've just spec'd mine and the exhaust is not an option. You get what you hear.. Mine shud be here by Mid Nov. Can't wait!!. Wazza | ||

Andrew, Thank you so much!!! After a lovely evening spent thrashing my 360 Spider, all the while pretending it was a "real" 360 (a Challenge Stradale  ), what a surprise to come home and get to watch this video. Awesome. A soundtrack made up of 90% Challenge Stradale and 10% classic Detroit Motown courtesy of Rare Earth. It don't get no better than that baby! | ||

Thanks, Tony!! That's the best capture of the sound yet!! And I think its already become the most often watched video on my computer. I'm not getting any work done this evening, though! Darn it! (BTW, the French video pales in comparison... but it would have been sweet if not coincident with the other. Thanks for posting that Andrew. Just wish I could save it to my local disk.) | ||

On FIFTHGEAR last night they test drove the 360 Stradale. While testing they came across the new 612 on same road. Vicki testing in the 360 Stradale was playing with the 612 on the road. The 612 driver then saw the film crew camera and turned off. It was then spotted again from the rear in a traffic jam. The new 360 Stradale has a incredible F1 sounding engine. They said the F1 box is the best they have ever used, new software developed by Ferrari. The paddle shifters are longer then on the standard 360 F1 for quicker and better up changes while cornering. The car is slightly longer at the front with a higher stance at the back for better air dynamics over the standard 360, lowered, better brakes, F1 undertray with flap extentions etc. The verdict was the car is excellent but you still can have as much fun in the standard 360 as the stradale. The 30 bhp is noticeable on the track when used as well. They said its a fully race street car with a difference... The painted strip over priced. The car they tested did not have one on.....  http://www.five.tv/home/frameset/?content=2633517& Vicki goes to Italy to test the latest Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale. Alright for some eh? It s a special racing car for the road version of Ferrari s stimulating 360. Its weight has been reduced, engine tweaked for extra power and it brakes boosted with carbon fibre technology. The question Vicki answers is can be it possibly be any more exciting than the standard 360 on which it s based? Vicki delivers her verdict. Useful link: | ||

Refinement goes to the Tubi and adds a louder scream on the top end, but the Stradale, it starts loud and builds from there! In your face screaming and downright incredible it can be legal loud.. Its an exhaust with a bypass that after a certain RPM it goes to straight pipes. How its legal, who knows, but it is! | ||

I can't say thanks enough. I would love so much to compare exhaust notes with a standard 360/tubi. | ||

I love that blonde! She is awesome! I wonder if she's as good in the sack as she drives? Anyway, I have to say that i really like the Stradale more and more each time i see it. If it came down to a Stradale or a Gallardo.... i must say id have to drive both. I give the Gallardo the edge in extrior style, while the Stradale is the hands down winner on the interior. Also, the Stradale sounds amazing, and may be a very good match for the Gallardo in acceleration. This would have to be one of the only times in recent history, that i wouldnt clearly take the Lamborghini. | ||

Nice Car Get name dont on list..... although thought the sound was similar to Tubi??? Did she say it came with Sports Exhaust or that that was fitted with one??? I noticed it wasnt the stock item....It was somewhat smaller but same shape.  | ||
