[Mb]

Hi guys. :)

 

 

As some of you may know the Gumball3000 starts next week.

Anyone going? We're thinking about going to Calais and hooking up with them there, then drive with them to Paris. :thumbsup:

[eXile]

My friend is going in matte black E39 M5. I want to go too but.. gota work :(

 

You should go MB, 106 will kick ass hah :p

[Mb]

If we go, it won't be with the 106 but with the Mondeo.

Navigation, cruise control, airco and radio... I need that when i drive 1000km in 1 day :lol:

:(

True.Still I am quite exited because I have a chance to see all that firepower.

Does it go to Australia? /awww

 

 

It's surprising that it doesn't go into America. I thought it always did :/

[t.]

Not always, although it has been there many times.

[ScoobSTi]

Can't wait to see some pics!

 

Why does Europe get all the fun? :lol:

I'll be waiting for YouTube vids... :rolleyes: I've been punching myself since last year. I had a friend who was borrowing the (at the time) only Alpina B7 in the United States. If I'd asked him, I'm sure he would have gotten the owner to drive us over into NY (maybe Saratoga or something) to chase down some Gumballers. :(

About Alpina,however I have missed a full day in a (read this carefully) Mansory Panamera Limited Edition!I know the guy,he is driving golden R8 and I talked to him just to find out that he know my father.He wanted me to drive Mansory while he and his are operating in r8 and novitec rosso cali to king of europe drift competition as there was some show for modified rides there and he wanted to show his,which he did at the end.Without me.You want to know what I did in that time?I worked in my garden.I decided to leave a go in that beast for another chance and went to make some fence.However there is not going to be another chance as he moved to Germany.I will upload a pic of Mansory later.See,you are not the only one who made that mistake...Man,690 horses swapped for some wood and metal...I should commit suicide...

It's in America again next year :p

@ Leadfoot: When we're going we got the Go Pro HD with us, should make some cool vids! :)

[TDUFREAK500]

Yes Gumball!! I cant wait to see all the photos and videos but it sucks that it doesn't go to New Zealand, we never get to see cars like that over here

[zo6dude]

I loved it last year, especially when they came to Canada, but our cops and idiotic residents ruined it, one lady complained that a GT3 RS was "endangering" her and her kid when it was doing donuts in the parking lot, so she complained to the cops after and the driver was arrested, the best part was that the lady never even made an effort to move.. she just stood there.. so I don't think they'll be back for awhile:( I'll post a few as well.

Nice shots there, Z06!

 

I never even got a chance to see them come by, but hopefully next year (well if Alex is right :cheeky:).

[Mb]

Got everything sorted for Thursday.

We're having 3 Go Pro HDs mounted on the car, footage is going to be sent to the Gumball crew and they might use it in official videos. Should be good.

1100km in one day/night. Yes, we're crazy :lol:

[Mr. Bean]

Gumball in Belgrade :D

[t.]

Tomorrow!!!!! Better be good. A few of the teams are already here, Qatari GT3 RS that Alex posted, a Cali and Gran Turismo from the US and last year's Texas Veyron is also in town.

[T0M722]

Are you allowed in anywhere like Alex is? He's a sneaky bugger, he is.
