Vivid Racing Poker Run; Yes, we rented a helicopter





Vivid Racing put on its first ever invite only Poker Run that covered 300 miles of some of the coolest 2 lane back roads that we know of. With such incredible cars from ZO6′s, M3′s, Lamborghini LP560, our Noble M400, and a slew of other rides, we circled a route around the southwest valley here in Arizona. Where most people just use some in car cameras or show side by sides, we went next level… got a helicopter!

Cool shots from the chopper, but looking at the scene where you all got waved over by the cops, I think I would have sent the bird ahead to scout the highway ahead of ya's lol.
