POLICE COULDN"T CATCH HIM AT 150 MPH FOR 28 HOURS! *Vinwiki's ED BOLIAN*

you hold the record for the Cannonball Run in this in that okay is this what made you famous how's it going how are you what's up guys welcome back to another episode of daily driven exotics yo Dave and I are no longer in Texas no I'm sure you knew that from the last video or a little flight over here we said we're coming to meet this gentleman and here we are at is humble abode slash castle welcome to Atlanta welcome to Atlanta I don't know if everyone knows edy bullying is the man behind Ben Wicky the YouTube channel and the app but also that IDI has like his own crazy car stories and very specifically around the Cannonball Run record he's the record holder we're gonna get into all that but as soon as we came here I was like he opened up your garage because you got some cars in here the DD fam would love to see and one of them is very special in fact shout-out to my friend the Strad man James guess what Ed's got in his garage yeah you guessed it a 360 Challenge Stradale now not your car no it's not I'm just babysitting it for a friend it's actually a good friend of mine from Tennessee and I sold him a whole bunch of cars while I worked at Lamborghini Atlanta and it needed some service work so it's been here for a couple of months this is obviously the race version of the road version of the racers it won't make this car really special from my understanding is they took the racecar and made it a road car whereas the the newer like the 430 scuderia and the four or five eight specially aller and the pista are road cars that they added some race parts to is that correct yeah generally they took what they did here and they've replicated it since because it does a great job of boosting sales towards the end of the runs for the mid-engine v8 cars and so obviously had a ton of challenge parts left over and they just put them into the road car and they made a limited version run back in 2004 and they sold really well at a pretty strong premium generally the that we saw in the 360 market around 2004 was reflected in the MSRP of this car so based on a 360 was about 160 grand these were about 200 to 10 depending on the options whether you got the stripe and the painted calipers and shields and everything else but it's a it's makes a fantastic car to drive very raw obviously as they age we get tired of the single clutch gearboxes and that effects a ton of to thousands exotics but this one still is very much worth it in terms of being able to drive it [Music] think of both but 360 I think like this is to me this is an old Ferrari now like there's many variations that have come since this car yet I'm noticing this cars got ceramic brakes yes this is one of the first this was the first car they were standard on for Ferrari the Ferrari made ceramic brakes standard on everything except the 612 in 2008 and into California was the first car that everyone made had yes by the way and beyond like this insane amount of knowledge when it comes to cars the manufacturers numbers who did a whole video on the rarity of the manual lp640 really brought it to light and knows because you're in the car business you I don't want to get it wrong is it a broker you're a broker I was a dealer for a while dealer yeah so now you have to do something and congrats to all your success it's amazing we got here and went Dave and I both got here didn't we not and looked at each other and went he makes all this happen from one room well we're running around with a camera like chickens with our heads cut off I was like he's definitely smarter than me I know in a lot of ways [Music] [Music] I have not what would you like what should I say Dave yes may I say yes you may that's start that is way better sounding than a Scud yeah now are you driving or am i driving come on let's go that's it have fun he seems like a fun guy this is uh this is as raw as Rory made it during this era so carbon-fiber door panels all Alcantara for the - Enzo and this both have a race button which is exciting but it'll just really quick in your gear shifts this doesn't have an adjustable suspension ASR is an automatic stability control we turn that off what does L see launch control however you don't want to do that on a 360 that has a very fixed number of clutch it's like this guy dude yeah you so don't do that no I like how they did sr with the line through right like don't like it's like don't do drugs don't do AI saw I so we are in a 360 Challenge Stradale my very first one thank you to head and the owner of this car now he said this is a race car and it's got a race button and he said just adds a little extra oomph to the ship's so right here oh it says race on the dash now and then no ASR like don't do drugs so let's let's hit that we'll see what happens and then we're gonna take this thing for a little cruise we're going to go up here for a second a decent stretch of road to kind of stretch his legs [Music] school sounds great it sounds great it's got that Ferrari v8 sound gazel here right here ready yeah [Music] [Laughter] feels like a race car let's say he's impressive it's tight really tight steering's really responsive this car when it first came out must have just been like blowing people's minds when they drove it [Music] [Music] driving it per second the sounds la Rosa the skirt it's on point the same obviously but it has the same [Music] that's pretty cool it feels like a race car right got a battery right here and fire single sure metal let's hope we don't have to use the fire extinguisher you ready oh yeah actually it was funny I'm speaking of that I never drove this good because again in Canada those weird insurance laws yeah so I've never driven before I've driven an FF that's the only Ferrari I've ever driven you've never driven any of the lightweight models no this is Dave's very first lightweight special model that he's ever driven [Music] I love that single-clutch is so wrong it is wrong losing our friendship it's pretty cool man you know here's probable well every time would you have another car our list gets longer so but we can't add this to the list why how's our boy James you can't get Astra dolly before James the Strad man gets Astrid all well James why haven't you got one yet Wow why don't we get him to buy this one it's called let's pull over in coal James what's how are you are you I know now I don't want to take up much of your time I know you're a busy man but I have I had something I had to share with you so I bullion I've never driven one Dave's never driven one and we finally all just got together and we're all we're all sharing in this together [Music] I'm gonna come with you we're gonna get snow Thomas snow tires on the cars and we'll come to a Utah hey congrats well hey thank you for taking the time to say hi saying hi to the blog you guys go check out James's channel if you haven't already and probably subscribe to them and yeah I'm just going to steal this car and I'm gonna bring it to you [Applause] [Music] that was fun a little jaunt in the 360 stradale just to get things warmed up the crowd well actually it's a little more orange than normally the normal rosso corsa red this is called rosso Scuderia which is a little bit more orange that's the color that used to paint the Formula one cars or to wrap the Formula one cars oh right they would look red on television really yes so this is that color if you parked it next to a Rosso Corsa car it would look quite orange what did you think of the experience that's only the second floor he's ever driven [Music] what's the story with the Porsche as far a few months ago it was really cheap on rent list which is a popular Porsche message for it somebody had posted it and the guy was kind of freaked out selling it and he advertised it way too cheap it was the first person to respond saying I will take it at your asking price no PPI and I'll wire money or come tomorrow whatever you want mm-hm and so honorable guy he ran down the list I responded answer the phone when he called and he agreed to sell it to me and when I when I got it I mentioned the possibility that we might give it away when we hit a million subscribers were at about six 26 25 now so that would probably be late this year give or take with the way it grows and so so if I get you to a million you just give it to us right now I think that work Ryan bribes it's a really cool car it is a great car it's one of those just very pleasant pure cars to drive very analog it's obviously the last generation of the air-cooled 911s and it's really just a Carrera but it's all rebodied as an RS so it's got some wings on the badging on that's it instead I actually want to just take it off to here and just put car it's a car that would be brilliant that's what it is and so if it were a real RS it would not have a sunroof and it'd be a 3/8 rather than a 3 6 it's got the full RS interior done with the door cards and a shifter Wow [Music] the Opel record for the Cannonball Run which is what give me the basics I honestly don't know everything real quick cannonball is it's the cross-country race from New York Los Angels New York to Los Angeles and you've done it in 28 hours and 50 minutes and what's it normally slow like if you were to play would say 42 hours 42 hours four with no stops in this in that okay is this what made you famous I hope I'm not famous but whatever Fame I have I suppose it's generally attached to this car yeah because this is like this is your I guess claim to fame on some level for this stuff for sure yeah so this is the 2004 Mercedes CL 55 AMG that in 2013 we said the New York to LA cannonball record day that a lot of prep oh yeah yeah I plant it for about ten years I really decided I was gonna do it in 2004 it is a ten year Cannonball Run is not just a 1980s goofy movie with the Rat Pack in it it's actually a real race that happened five times in 1970s from New York to Los Angeles kind of no rules do what you want and it was sort of in protest of fuel regulations and a 55 mile an hour speed limit and just general automotive law brach Yates who was a writer for car and driver at the time was quite the libertarian and he decided that he and his friends knew better and they could go out and drive real real fast we did it in a one-off sort of time trial and it worked out pretty well dare I ask so because of the two large extra fuel cells that are in the trunk we couldn't have the spare wheel in the trough that it normally has under the trunk floor so the spare wheel and tire set right there oh so that's that's writer in Massillon few years afterwards without moving it and I probably should have moved it so we had three radar detector systems and two Ford facing one rear-facing so these two up top and then I actually ran a valentine one the other way mounted to the rear okay eventually we got interference from that in Ohio so we turn the rear one off to navigation screens up here we had two more mounted back well everything still works yeah most of it does still talking to us the the police scanner we programmed for the entire country and we put all of it on one bank which was a mistake because it all fit we thought that'd be okay but it didn't scan fast generally the goal is for the driver only to pay attention to the act of driving not to worry about navigation not to worry about cops just to worry about going as fast as the car can go every moment of the drive so the passenger is required to monitor the directions that need to be followed sale you know watch the ABS for your phone we had ways and Trapster back then Nokia Hudson shut had since shut Trapster down run the CB run the police scanner and things like that and just tell you what to do so the dialogue was very you know mission oriented it wasn't like we went we didn't play the radio or look at anything else it was really about all right you've got an opening here you got a car three links ahead that you can pass to go this way nothing on the scanner nothing on ways nothing on Trapster keep going you know you got a little bit more speed to go whatever and you know let you know when you're cleared immersed you're not having to check blind spots and stuff like that so it's really just telling you rally driver style exactly what to be doing yes that 1.3 mile an hour moving average which was 98 when you account for the 46 minutes we spent stopped we had three fuel stubs there were nine twelve and seven minutes and then we had to stop a couple of times to add oil and we did roadside driver changes we had facilities on board to relieve ourselves that we didn't use any of those so that's incredible yeah so there you don't just get in a car and go okay let's go real fast interesting right here it looks like a light on the other yeah it is so there's a button here too actually press and hold it and it'll pulse' you've always heard the rumors that if you flash your high beams at a traffic light that's red it will turn green yes and there are it would be completely random that it would the frequency that you used was correct but it's possible it's the pulsation of light at a diode there so yeah it can happen but generally this is much more scientifically arranged it's called a part you know honestly it's a lot less dramatic than you'd expect it to be and then we were driving really really fast we only encountered about five speed traps and we predicted all but one we came up on one that I'd seen and Dave my co-driver was driving and I saw him is back on him a quarter-mile ahead I'm like brakes brakes brakes and he's like oh yeah I see him breaking up there's like no there's a cop and he just hammers on him but it definitely were passed him at about 130 miles an hour and fortunately he was just sitting in the median looking at his computer so I don't know what recently updated pornography site we have to thank for that mess but it was amazing yeah that was as close as we came the only near accident we really had is like along a long line of tractor trailers and one of them pulled out in front of us it was a FedEx truck if any tractor trailer ever tries to kill you it's more than likely going to be a FedEx truck and I he couldn't have seen me coming as fast as we were cuz when you've got this bright light in front of you and you look into your mirrors you can't really see the contrast it's just so different right and so he comes out and I glass past him at about 135 140 miles an hour and I put two wheels in the median but it was smooth enough of what that big of a deal that Dan and Dave both thought we were absolutely going to die but it was rather undramatic which is corrected as we kind of blasted out of New Jersey and into Pennsylvania you know we were hidden 140 50 miles an hour in each of the straights and it was the first time that Dan who was our navigator those in the back spoke up at all and he said are we seriously gonna drive like this the whole time yeah yeah dan that's the idea [Music] and we did we went literally as fast as the car would go every moment Wow now could it be done in a supercar obviously it was set several times in supercars of the day so yes there is a precedent that it can be done you couldn't carry nearly as much fuel as we had which would be effective like you couldn't necessarily I don't you couldn't get the range that we had this car will go a little over 850 miles I want to thank again your spare would be down here and we can't get to it so we just did two additional 22 gallon cells with transfer pump slide together and it just ran through this and then we had a different gas cap that we would just route it through since then on the s-class that we did afterwards there was what we did is we hung the spare like a truck like under it and so we cut out the trough and used that as kind of a cap and so if we had to get the spare out we could do that so that allows you to have the full back seat which is much better quality of life as you do this Wow you guys we are in the home duplicated studio of VIN Wicky we can't show the other places undisclosed however I want to know what all this hoarding is all about and what is all this junk just joking let's have a lot of men a lot of personal yeah has some some real meaning to it the we're actually in a room above my garage I duplicate our studio here and all of it really does have some meaning I've got a plaque from the cannonbolt memorial run that we do every year to raise money for ways have fallen officers this is the oil pan to my original Guyardo it was rented on a long-term basis to a guy in Florida and he just did donuts in a Lamborghini all the time I can't imagine what would do that but if you hole in the right here and out the side of both sides of the block so this is not supposed to be see-through right here this is the trophy you win if you win the 2904 technically it's now held by Arnie Tillman because he won last year but he brought it back and I've been babysitting it for him and every time you win you have to add something to it so when I wanted it was just this part and I added the extra things and made it taller and you got all this stuff up top yeah you add your key so these are the keys of all the cars that I've ever won 2904 explain real quick okay 904 so there's really two modern interpretations of cannonball there's the idiots like me that just go out and see how fast we can do it and then there are some organized races but they all have a significant constraint so the 2904 is a $1 per mile budget run from new york to initially San Francisco it's two thousand nine hundred four miles to San Francisco so you had to buy a car prep it and you could only do safety related repairs beyond two thousand nine hundred four dollars and so we did it in 2015 for the first time they thought they'd stopped doing it but they heard about our run and they asked if I'd come out and do it and we bought a twelve own or two accidents salvage title s55 AMG from lady on Craigslist Las Vegas and we won within our thirty two hours and five minutes and we added our key to its trophy that's very cool thank you for sharing all these stories and given a little behind the scenes of the VIN Wiki studio you've got a ton of stories like there's stuff that just it there's so much that we've been doing so much even off camera than wiki car stories merge for ya damn it'd be funny things in his description excellent some mil check thumbnail you're gonna look what's your clickstream little I met the fastest richest man in America is your tail hook this is like a poster yeah it's like a poster right here it looks like rat like a castle which all we're like two car sort of the Higher Education poster
