You have no Idea how much I admire all the effort put into this project. You have put so much of your blood sweat and tears into this, it absolutely awes me. Make us fellow 'Luders proud!

You have inspired me.

Ok guys...**** didn't go as planned. (does it ever.) does it matter??

HELL NO!

I don't think this **** has sunk in yet...but you are participating in the ONE AND ONLY GUMBALL RALLY. There is a gang of us here that would give our left arm just to drive in it.

You were given the opportunity for a reason...not because of the car you drive but the people you are.

Todd, A big ******* turbo and wing are not included in your recipe for hard lemonade.. you don't need that ****.

The lude is telling you something...its wants to run the gumball how it was created.. NA

Lets put it in terms we can all understand.

Entrance in the Gumball 3000-15k.

Months of non-stop preperation-lack of sleep/food/time/debt- More value than you can imagine. (unless you name is Todd/Mike)

Driving in the one and only Gumball Rally. Partying w/Playboy Bunnies-Driving @triple digit speed all day runnin from the po-lice.-staying @pimpy hotels- rolling w/cars that cost more than your house.- and just not giving a **** for an entire week w/memories you will never forget.

PRICELESS!!
no...make that ******* PRICELESS!!


That **** is bold for a reason..

You don't need any luck...Have the time of your life, no matter what happens.

Todd and mike:

Well guys even though initially you guys ran into some "technical difficulties" with the whole car situation you guys have already made us HT members damn proud with your efforts, as well as your dedication and love for the prelude... regardless of whether or not things went according to plan, you both have overcome many obstacles and in the end you guys are still participating in the friggin GUMBALL!! how cool is that?! i mean while you guys are racing across country, and partying with playboy bunnies, most of us will be going about our everyday lives wishing we could be in your shoes... My advice to you both is as follows:

1) forget about all the bullshit you went through prior to the start of the race.. and just enjoy the moment.. not everyone gets the opportunity you guys are getting, infact most of us would sell our souls to satan to have the chance to run the gumball.. so make the best of it...

2) Take plenty of pictures with the bunnies.

3) Carry plenty of doughnuts to offer as bribes should you actually get pulled over...

4) Whoop ***, and take names...

Best of luck to you both, and we all look forward to hearing all the stories upon your return!!! Dont forget to look me up when you get to miami... Todds got my number..

This should ROCK. An experience like this will rank up there with one of the coolest things you'll ever do in your life!!! Even when you're bored going through the middle of nowhere, be sure to relish every second of it, because we are all jealous!

I'm sorry the car didn't live up to all the trash talking. I hope you can rise above the doubters and haters. I will miss reading about the 170 mph war stories. Lets see some 140mph war stories!!!

Keep it real, represent H-T with all you've got. Make us proud. Even though things didn't turn aout as planned, you guys are still acting as bigtime ambassadors.

Now go KICK SOME ***!!!
