Gumball 3000 2006

[Clouds_mate]

Any one been following the first 2 episodes on Extreme?


Thialand, what the hell is all that about?

[CampDavid]

no, though it amuses me when rich twats find out they can't drive the hard way. Racing on a public road? Fine if your rich, inbred and do it in another country

[Clouds_mate]

So if you was famous and had the chance to do it you would say no?

[bobbyf]

saw a bit yesterday, not sure if it was this years tho?

Mailorder brides...

[CampDavid]

So if you was famous and had the chance to do it you would say no?

Hmmm, there's the rub as I do like road trips but in all honesty, I think I would say no. There are road trips I'd rather do. Ferry to Amsterdam, party, Nurbergring, Spa, down through the Alps, Italy, Monza, back up through Monaco for the Grand Prix, back home.

Hows that for a slice of fried pie

[Clouds_mate]

Its all about the road trip, partying hard on a night with the bitchs.


All free (if your famour) Hellllooo, thank you please

[CampDavid]

Its about 45k to enter, didn't think it was free to anyone, unless you can get a mate to pay!

[Clouds_mate]

even if you get a mate to pay its something stupid to be a drivers mate. Cost a fortune.

But the famous people surely got all the suponsers and shit to pay.

saw summat las year where a viper dropped off a cliff 100 ft down doing the gumball and landed on its wheels, blokes inside were ok but the car was fucked

[Clouds_mate]

The student gumball rally started on Sunday.


Was watching it last night and a guy in a bentley with an army colour paintjob span out at full pace into the barrier. Gutted. lol

2002ish even, 150mph, sideways roll, jump 5 fences.

Good effort 8.5 out of 10

[Danes_SaxoVTR]

i would definatly do it if i had the money!!!

They only allow 100 cars each year, so you need to have something really special or unusual to get in!

Last year it was 25k to enter i think, but it does cover your accomidation, food and ferry passes :P

[Clouds_mate]

Anyone know this guy....

mwahaha

[CampDavid]

Yup, that blokes made all his money as a hacker. Keeps getting caught

[Clouds_mate]

Hes a legdend, bit of a fat geek but wouldnt mind his life style. Check out his pictures.

Mint holidays
Aswsome Merc

[hesslevtr]

now that is my idol

[Danes_SaxoVTR]

Hes funny as fuck, been in prison and everything!
Crazy driver too!

[Barry123]

didnt think it was that expensive. i seem to remember a couple of years ago that it was about 5k (may have been the american roads)

promised myself when im rich I'll take the saxo on it just for a laugh.

[Clouds_mate]

Remember the Icecream van lol

[hesslevtr]

longest ever person to complete the rallye ;)

[Barry123]

doubt I'd get pulled over mofo.

Wouldnt need to fill the focker up every couple of miles.

I reckon I'd own it :cool:

[Dave_M]

I think it was only about 8k back in 2004. To enter. That reyland cossie in the pictures on the kimble site is a quality car. Think it was the fastest car in the gumball that year. Well fastest acceleration. Doubt it top speed.

I want to do it when i got a good enough car and the money.

[hesslevtr]

will only cost ads about £10 in fuel
