Default I thought Gumball3000 2008 was cancelled?

Following last years death, the last thing I heard was it was cancelled....

Now I have just read....
The "10th Anniversary" Gumball will take place in August this year starting in San Francisco and finishing 8 days later in China at the Beijing Olympics. Dates of the rally are August 9th-16th.

Granted its not touching the UK, but hmmm.

Aaah well
Cant see the reception from police in the USA being too good.

I thought there were two Gumballs each year. One for the States and a European one. No idea which are running this year though.

Would love to do it with an element of common sense.
Not sure that the regular USA one is Gumball3000, I thought it was the Bullrun.

Prob wrong.
Will be funny to see the reactions they get this year.
