dont forget the wicked cornervette..................

 

I remember in the DVD I have of the gumball that year, at the crash scene, you can hear one of the other competitors say "shit man, that was one of the fastest cars here" or something like that, som im saying it was impressive

 

How about entering a time attack event as well if you’re over this side of the world?
The yanks will not know what’s hit them.

 

Go for it, be cool to see an Escort Cossie in the Gumball

And like you say, you only live once.....

 

Do the yanks have a time attack series?

 

wow, 2 minds. one part of me says do it.as t will raise some serious eyebrows on it,and as said you have unfinished business. the other part says dont due to what happened last time.now lee has sold the 3dr i'd be gutted if yours even got tapped lightly now.


you know the car is built far far better than the last,you know its pretty much bullet proof like lee's and im sure you will be alot more careful(not that you intended what happened last time).

as you say you only live once and you may as well enjoy it mart.

im just jealous and gutted im a peasant and cant afford to do one myself. its one of them things that you dont understand until you have the buzz and atmosphere of all the people around you doing it.

if you do go for it mart,good luck buddy

 

if they dont get 1 going

O yes, this is the most popular one I think. It is also shown on the speed cable channel.

 

All the best martin if u decide to do this. Must be some fkin trip! exciting and scary all in one.

I remember finding a picture of ur escort sat in traffic in the last gumball u entered, it was supercar, supercar, Reyland, supercar, super car. I just thought it looked so bloody cool all stickered up and sitting on a busy street

 

question answered :-



i have seen cosworths do the "1 lap of america" too

 

hey best of luck if u and porkie do next years gumball martin

 

Everyone by now knows of the Gumball Rally, Martin sticks his car in it, people see it, maybe a chat with him during the filming and bang, XXXXXXXX Amount of people see the car built in his own workshop, thats enough of an advert for any Ford freak with a need for power.

Ginge

 

I'd pay that much just to hang out at the playboy mansion with my old pal Heffi

 

only as long as i can play with bridgette and holly for that amount.

 

Oh yeah definitely +1

 

Correct. It's a great advertising opportunity which takes some of the sting out of the cost!

Some companies spend millions a year on advertising for a few 30 second clips on the TV!

Martin can probably write off some of the costs for this as "advertising" if he has a good accountant!

 

go for it martin, would love to do the gumball

is porkie going to be the co-driver then???

 

Go fo it Martin mate. Would be awesome to see the Escort on the Gumball again. It seemed like a lot of people didn't know what had hit them with the last car.

If I even had a thought I could raise the cash needed I would be there like a shot

 

Bring the caravan!!!!! Can't ask for more attention than a escos towing that old rag hehe

 

that's probably the best suggestion ever on these boards!

 

If you/porkie can afford it lads then go for it

 

if i had the money,, i would HAVE to do it once at least!!

 

Depends what you mean by "had the money" though, realistically, im sure you could raise 22.5K surely?

Difference between having it and having it to spend on something so frivalous, lol

 

Be sure not to piss off the police they are a bit gun happy, Or will it be on "World wildest police chases" lol

 

very true LOL

 

as someone has said surely its a good chance for some advertising too could pay off nicely

 

Sounds like a great idea

Mike

 

how olds your daughter martin and what times tea dad

 

Why not go with 2 cars. Get Lee to take his 911 as well.

 

COUNT ME IN

Lets try and get to the finish this time

 

Is there still 2 pricing structures for this, i.e if you have entered before it is cheaper ? just curious thats all, and does that head case in the Porsche still enter that used to do all the doughnuts?

Mike

 

ahhh yea, try and get on the "worlds best police chase" pls, that will be mint.

Yank birds love english accent too :P Innit bruv

 

got to be done if you can afford it etc....

have fun.

 

I'd love to do this. Sadly too much money tho isnt it.

 

Ha ha Looks like this may be on then!! Just need to sort costs for shipping the car, Franco???

 

cool

i just hope the redline guys follow you along and make us all happy with a long dvd of your adventure i'm sure it will help you guys sell one or too more extra mags

 

Loads of pics please!

Awesome, still remember the almost daily updates of the first time round, car will look the nuts in that sun!

 

On of the things that i will have to do however i would do it in a rented car thrash and hand it back i no more expensive but hell i would do it in a rented car

 

Serious question - How do you get the car there?

JJ

 

Got to agree there Mart.. It was FUCKIN AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Id love to be able to do it again,but alas,i need all my body organs!!So unless my 6 balls fall out of lancealot next saturday,it wont be top of my to do list!!!

Pete...
