He may be a good man, but he lacks good judgement.

This event has a history of being populated by complete idiots and it is best avoided by anyone with a conscience, or any sense of class and style.

Big mistake IMO

I doubt he cares.

Maybe. The event therefore collects like-minded people - in other words, people who don't care.

Innocent bystanders have been killed in the past by these cretins. Ordinary people going about their business in a quiet country, killed by some moron doing nine hundred leptons in a liveried cock extension.

I love performance cars and driving. And I would willingly burn this whole charade with fire.

The event used to attract big sponsors but I think they've been frightened off because of the general cockness of the organisers and participants.

It is a bell-end convention; a gathering of clowns, a collection of cocks.

It is where every bad thing about performance cars, every single cringe worthy thing you've ever seen associated with sports cars, every activity you would prefer not to be associated with, all brought together in one event.

I've done proper car rallies. I've crossed countries in fast cars with fellow enthusiasts.

This is not a car rally. It is a cock-fest.

Lets just say that some very connected hyper-car and classic car owners in my acquaintance have passed on some hair raising experiences of past events to me. These are people who refuse to be associated with the event any more.

I wish all the participants good luck and safe journeys, free of incidents. If only for their own safety, their families and bystanders. I will leave it there.

Or the booze

Gum ball reminds me of all the chavs you used to get around mcdonalds/ supermarket car parks with their modified corsas and saxos every evening..... Except with more money.

The 'pack' mentality, distasteful stickered up/ modified cars, general disregard for other road users and inappropriately showing off. No difference in my mind.....

Mike

Sad to see.
He aquaplaned, one of the Twisted Defenders was going faster.
Sad

I know one of the drivers, and he is a lovely chap. He is a modest, successful businessman and PHer, who takes great pleasure in driving his cars. He is always to be found at the charity days, giving rides to the public.

Some of you guys must be boring as hell?!? Although I do agree, a lot of Gumballers are probably dicks with too much money, the parties alone would be worth the entry fee! Didn't they end up at the Playboy Mansion one year...c'mon, what guy doesn't want to party at the Playboy Mansion!

If I had the cash, I'd do it without question. It would a laugh, don't take it so serious! Though obviously if innocent people get hurt, that isn't so funny.

Agreed. A season of Super Trofeo would seem to be a better bet.
