Can I Drive The London Marathon?

It is that time of year again when people all up and down the country are putting on their new running shoes and stretching on the Lycra to start training for the 2010 London marathon.

The silly fools!

I understand it is all for charity and it must be a pretty amazing feeling to actually complete the epic race but I can assure you that you will never get me doing the London marathon unless I was hired as a driver for one of the camera bikes or cars. It is quite funny watching the footage on TV though because every now and again you get too see one of the bikes lose concentration for a bit and crash into the back of one of the TV cars.

However the reason I’m making this post is because I think I have found a genius marketing idea for TV crews covering the event. Use an awesome Lowrider or Muscle car! Think about it how many shots of your car would be splashed around the news just because it would be an interesting talking point?! Have your company/slogan up the side and you just got yourself loads of awesome advertising for free.

So basically, TV crews, you need to find yourself an awesome car to use. Bonus points if you use something with a V8 in it that drowns out the sound of anything else in the immediate area…

Something like this would be good
