On a hot summer afternoon, on the streets of Santa Barbara as still as the night, quiet before the storm, the crowd will arrive on the next morning and the tarmac will be burning with rubber for the rest of the week, gasoline will fill the yet aromatic air with fumes of fury...
Its Gumball time again!!! This year for the first time ever, myself Moe and my best buddy since childhood Matt will be kicking off the event with a spectacular show of class and style through the streets of America. This years 3000 mile route, an all classic coast to coast rally, will be incorporating stops in Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Santa Fe, Dallas, and New Orleans to embellish Gumball's core values of uniting people through popular culture and the unique language of motorcar. The rally will unfortunately end in Miami after seven longs days of crazy driving and absolute fun.
For the past 10 years Gumball 3000 has gained a lot of fans and spectators from all over the world. This year's Gumball has something different to offer. Moe n Matt will raise the bar to a totally different level. We will be implementing our long planned Gumball 3000 trip replicating Prince Abdul Bin Falafel from the 36-hour non-stop race across America in the Cannonball Run produced in 1981. We plan to take-off from Santa Barbara to Miami and only stop for refueling and of course maybe sleep.
In our quest across America we will imitate our character as Prince Abdul Bin Falafel, dressed in our traditional Sheikh attire, we will pursue the quest to avoid being stopped by police using our on-dashboard radar detectors, police scanners and a cool box filled with just ''Red Bull''.
Both of us inspired for our love of cars and longstanding friendship we hope to event a similar role to one our favorite movies. Hopefully with the least amount of tickets, violations and arrests….. |
