One of my best friends, Andy Prill, is Jay Kaye's mechanic and friend.   He 
is the real deal, and has a fantastic car collection, all of which he 
drives, and drives well.

His latest video features a genuine Porsche 911 2.7 RS lightweight, a 
$200-300K car, and he had Andy drive the snot out of it while he chased him 
piloting his own helicopter.   The song is "White Knuckle Ride".   Here's a 
'making of the video' video; Andy is the guy in the Motul T-shirt.

And here's the finished product:

I got to visit Andy at his workshop in England a week or so after the 
shoot.   The car was so filthy that he had to remove the whole drivetrain just to 
clean it!   Amazingly, given the brutal treatment that it got at Andy's 
hands, the car was completely undamaged, just really dirty....
