Default Gumball 3000 the HILLCLIMB!!!!!

All this Gumball talk has just reminded me that Gumball are organising a Hillclimb race event for all the entrants who competed in the Rally

Car 57 'B' WILL be entering Thats the Sierra by the way

And YES we will be trying VERY FOOKING HARD to win

BUT we will be trying even HARDER to make it more than half way up the hill without rolling.... as that would be just TOO embarrassing
