Flash playboys bring Piccadilly Circus to a standstill with £4million of cars for the second weekend in a row

Brothers Kash and Shabs Ahmad run the Piccadilly Boy Racers club and insist they won't let any riff raff join

LONDON'S Piccadilly Circus lived up to its name - after thousands of tourists crowded round the capital's thoroughfare to gawk at a collection of supercars.

A group of 'boy racers' passed through the junction and around some of central London's busiest addresses to show off their luxury motors.

And it soon emerged that the flash show was set up by two East London brothers who run a secret luxury motor club.

Kash and Shabs Ahmad, who both hail from Ilford, run the highly-selective Piccadilly Boy Racers club and organise jaunts around the country.

On Saturday the cars passed through the West End's Oxford Street, Regents Street, Knightsbridge and finally Piccadilly Circus.

"The lower the class of car the more likelihood there is that the driver will do something unsavoury to raise more attention to their vehicle.

"Since the last event we have had a lot of interest from people who want to join.

"We have a look at their vehicles they send to us on Instagram or Facebook and if we think they are suitable then they can join - but we are very careful about who we let in."

It is the second time Piccadilly has been brought to a standstill in a matter of days by the brothers.

They descended on the junction last week - causing gridlock in central London.

But the pair, who run the firm Kream Developments, explained: “The public swamped the roads and we couldn’t do anything about it.

“We would have been passing through – it was gridlocked and we got out of our cars to clear the way.

‘We have to keep everyone happy and not p*** them off so we can move on without someone getting upset or damaging the cars.

“We just turned off the engine and got out, mingled and enjoyed it.”
