Video of the Bentley Continental GT Convertible (Team 32) being pulled over by the police. The two American Porsche Turbo’s (Team 23 & 84) can continue without a problem. The police was very strict on the way to Dover and at some point slowed down all traffic on the highway by driving with two police cars next to eachother below the speed limit.
The Gumball 3000 was back on VTM this weekend. Last year the Belgian TV station VTM reported about the previous edition of the rally, and they still call it a race and mess up their facts and figures. But the funny thing about this years report is that one Ferrari got away with doing 227 km/h because the police was to busy fining other Gumballers.
For all of you who didn’t make it down to the start of this year Gumball 3000 in London, we found the best video of the start. There are so many videos out on the web this year that we don’t want to flood the frontpage with all of them, instead we only select the best ones. Of course you can find a whole lot more Gumball 3000 videos in our Gumball Forum! Thumbs up for Patrik Lindblom for the great video.
Team Fuel just released their first video! Richie, Gerry and the Fuel Girls are on their way to Athens to get united again with their Mansory Bentley Continental GT. In the video Richie takes you to his Fuel store and shows you the Mansory Phantom and tells you about the rest of the cars, new girl Zara interviews Maximillion and a lot of random clips from the start:
We just received an update from Team 50. They are on their way to Athens right now with all the other Gumballers, and get wait to get their car back. They had a great time during the first leg from London to Amsterdam but then the German police spoiled the party a bit. Here’s their first video from the German highway.
Team 73 was the highlight of todays RTL news bulletin. Their car was impounded after reckless driving and speeding in excess of 200 km/h. The police used one of their feared undercover camera cars to chase the Gumballers. In the video below you can see Team 73 on the way to Amsterdam, they had no idea they were followed by an undercover police car. Thanks to our friends of Autogespot for capturing the video!
