0 1. sudrzewicka commented 12 years ago on video Amazing BMW ad from 2001

Just FYI on this ad. The 447 LSR car was developed by TBWA Hunt Lascaris in South Africa in conjunction with BMW and Tarlton Raceway. It ran at the Hakskeenpan salt flats located a few miles from the Namibian border. Andy Green from Thrust SSC was out here however the car was driven by S.A. National Drag Racing Champion, Nico van Rensburg from Tarlton. Speed was not the object of the exercise as another car with a special mounted camera had to run alongside the 447. It averaged around 230kph if that but all told, TBWA created a magical moment. Andy Green and the Thrust SSC team will be back in South Africa in 2013 to run their new transonic "Bloodhound."
