Times Square Midnight Run 2009 *NEW VIDEO*

NYSpeed Automotive

This last weekend was a hell of a time. I met up with Mike (MPD47) and a bunch of the AKA / Blown Euros / Revmat.ch guys and we went on a little cruise around NYC with about 70+ cars.

You name it, and someone was driving it. The cars included a Carrara GT, a bunch of Aston Martins, Ferraris, BMWs, etc. I have a good amount of film to sort though.

Mike was driving around a friends GTR. (See his impressions thread HERE) Earlier in the day we all stopped by the Formula D event in NJ, where kids actually bowed down when he passed in that car, lol. :thankyou:

Here are some pics from a bunch of different photographers. I’ll add more as I find the good ones. I’m sure Mike has some as well.

s13 is hot

9

My elise was straight piped…

It didn’t really sound good.

10

fucking hell that looks awesome. how didnt i know about this i totally would have went… :banghead:

11

looks like a sick time! :tup:

12

pics look cool, but that does NOT look like fun.lol NYC traffic sucks a big dick and id rather walk when im there.

13

It was straight piped with a single resonator (elise), I lied. For a track car I think it was great, I would kill someone if I had to drive it on the the street.

14

Some guys in SAAB Turbos blew past us and sprayed my camera and myself with a light coat of oil… I wasn’t too happy. Other than that, the only hiccups were security guards flipping out everywhere we went, lol.

15

It’s not THAT bad. You just have to stay alert. I stayed in Midtown with my Range Rover. Valet parking and power fold mirrors help though. :wink:

16

love the shot of the GTR minus mike’s arm hanging out of the window :wink:

17

OT: Just as I opened this thread, Basshunter - Professional party people started playing.

Looks like it was a good time.

18

ITs sad tha ttime square is going to be closed to vehicle traffic soon

19

Haha I was thinking the same thing. People must love sitting in traffic and dodging dumb ass tourists crossing the road with their Ferrari.

I guess the only benefit was the number of people that get to check out your car and its effect on ones ego :slight_smile:

It’s not. Just Broadway has been closed for almost a month, not 7th. So you can still drive though it north/south. :tup:
