After the m4 from Newport to london was completed in the 60s there were races from Newport to Chiswick. The big goal was to do it in one hour. It used to take place at night and of course there was very little traffic then.
Filmed on a Kodak Playsport zx5. It was a good camera back then. For the blur it was run through sony Vegas twice to speed up video. As max was only x4 speed.
Hi Simon, I'm working on a BBC TV programme and am very interested in featuring your London to Cardiff video within it, I've sent you a message via you tube and facebook, so hope to hear from you soon, Kind Regards, Jane
Simon Ewens you needa do it cuz some ppl out there would look it up and be able to find the persons house and I’m only 10 but I think it’s illigal to not blur out the Reg plates idk
You cant get that data from the DVLA unless you have a valid reason too. It's not illegal as it's public information since number plates are displayed in public.
