Yes I saw the program - did you see those lads in the Ferrari nearly wipe out spectators, and then that Dodge Viper run off the road

The guy in the Ferrari was pretty cool - loved that 'dont you dare' as he was overtaking a donkey and a 4x4 was about to pull out.

Maximillion guy is just loopy!

Absolutely awesome. I saw the vid for the years before and the USA one. I'd love a shot of that.

The English guy with the GT2 didn't appear too much in this one but he is featured heavily on the others, he is a complete nutcase

I think that was Martin Hadland, I heard he totalled his car on the Gumball.

Is this going to be repeated on Extreme TV?

A guy i know is out practising at the moment in europe in his bentley turbo , had it shipped out to vienna last week and had nitrious kit fitted , already been stopped a few times and managed to talk his way out, but i think he needs to sort his brakes out from what i heard for the real event.

Me and a few of the characters at work are talking about doing it (Not particularly seriously at the mo). We reckon that as there's no way you could compete with the Ferraris and all the 911s (Without risking your pride & joy, anyway), the way to do it would be to go for laughs. So we'd put together a replica of Ecto 1 and all get jumpsuits made up! Or go as the A-Team! Got to play it for laughs I reckon

(Unless you're a coke snorting hooray henry with loads of cash!)

if you consider your car your "pride and joy" then you're in the wrong league really and shouldn't be thinking of gumball !
