London racetracks

Loved the video, great sounding Merc. By the lack of traffic it must have been quite early, which brings me to my London track. I used to get to work very early, 4-5am, i lived in south east london and the office was in north west london, id say 7-8 miles. I would cross the thames at vauxhall bridge, left on to the embankment and stay on the road through Chelsea, Earls court, Shepherds Bush island and up on to the A40 then down to Park Royal. If the Traffic lights were with me it could be done in 15 mins, coming home in the afternoon could take a hour and a half. At that time of morning,especially weekends, London has lots of fun driving. This was done in my 1971 Mercedes 280se 3.5, i used to look forward to those summer mornings.
