Is anyone out there planning to attend any part of the Gumball 3000 tour in 2004. It runs from May 4 through the 10th.

It starts in Paris,

Yeah its wild. They drive like 600 or some miles a day and then party all night and drive again. A lot of the people get like 2 hours of sleep a night. Most of them are top end cars too, like ferarris, aston, mercedes, lambo, etc. I missed the two years it was here in the states. I was thinking almost of actually flying over there to see part of it and partake in some partying but not to sure.

I have never heard of this before. Hm. Just saw a trailer though and it looks pretty crazy. Has it ever came to Canada, do you know?

No, this is the 6th one. They have had it twice in the U.S. and the rest in Europe. The two here, one went from New York City to Los Angeles and the other was Miami to Los Angeles I believe. Here is their site Gumball Rally Tour Site
