Thanks, snakepit27!
Sad that the crowd is not exactly what I'd call a "mob". Excuse my ignorance, but who's the driver? BTW - I've added "Pics" to the thread title, in an effort to let some folks know that there is bandwidth involved. |

It appears it was for a Champ Car commercial to be aired on Spike TV. I imagine the area was probably blocked to pedestrians for safety concerns and to ease production. Pretty cool stuff!

General Marketing Not only was the 2-Seater in Times Square, but with the help of SpikeTV they were filming a series of Champ Car commercials. One would have a "nice-looking" lady trying to flag down a cab. When she thinks she has one the cab doesn't stop, but Ryan Hunter-Reay and a 2-Seat Champ Car do. There were also a few more commercials in the making. |

I believe that this was an early morning shoot, and as enemy-ace stated, the area was blocked off for the shoot. Here are two links to articles about the events:

Haha, Road Runner... kinda fitting, isn't it? I hope that Spike airs some commercials soon! There hasn't been one yet. Not even a "Coming Soon" commercial. Man, they better be promoting the heck out of the rest of the season!
