Here are some of my favourite pictures from it

And do you know what???
Next year I’m gonna go and film it all for you.

I want to give away free tickets for the event in 2024!

If you want it, I’ll make it happen!
Or we can keep things standard if preferred 🤝 

2. Catching air in a lambo??

There’s this crazy UK fella, Mark McCann.

Well, he bought a 2023 Lambo Sterrato which is:

• suitable for off-roading

• v10, 600 horses

• absolutely beautiful

And he used it as intended and jumped it (video)

How wild though, can’t believe I just typed that 😆 

He’s also based in the UK sooooo maybe I go meet him???
