I second that!

I cant imagine something more fun to do if you have a ton of money and can afford one of those cars and the tickets/fine/jail/lawyers fees that go along with this race.

there were 2 gumballs in the US one from NY to LA and one from SF to Miami. There are stories about people outrunning helicopters in arizona, to fish tailing in the snow in teh sierras nevadas. I think the cops kidna got mad about the gumball in the US so they took it back to Europe.

Excuse me now, i gotta wipe the keyboard =P

The Carrera GT and Enzo are also all Carbon Fiber bodied, and most of the chassis.

I don't think any of the cars in either gumball or player's run has sponsors.
But does anyone know how people enter these type of events?
