jonathan73 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 http://www.gumball3000.com/rally/enter http://www.cannonballruneurope.co.uk/uk/index.htm This year's Gumball attracted a few celebs, including of course the car-mad Jamiroqui. The event got slated because of the hectic schedule which lead to drivers having little sleep and loads of driving to do. Consequently there were some crashes and deaths. Unfortunately an Eastern European elderly couple got killed by a w4nker in a GT3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, do it in your home country. At least there they can take away your driving license, permanently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuey Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 wouldnt be much of a gumball stickin to the speed limits.................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GC350z Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Last I heard the stage winner of a gumball was the one who arrived closest to the allocated time given at the start of the stage. So for example if the stage was 120miles the allocated time might be 2hrs. Only an example. Actual time would depend on the route, speed limits and expected delays. Of course this is dull for the drivers who are all in performance/supercars so it turns into a race. The organisers are to blame for that as they give out the prizes to the fastest, slowest, stupidest and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M350ZB Posted May 28, 2007 Author Share Posted May 28, 2007 Well im thinking if not a gumball, more of a massive cruise sort of thing, stay starting in londo and heading to wales then scotland and then back, get loads of stickers made up, sponsors, e.t.c, would nayone be intrested in such a thing or ?

Zzzz... Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Maybe Pooky 74 can explain what the Dragumball Z thingy she's advertising in her signature involves...going on in August. In tried to read it but it was all french to me... Maybe get some ideas, and who knows in future could even have an Anglo-Franc -ball (ad)venture, (If we get our headZ to it I am sure we'll make it more successfull than the last joint venture! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
