I have registered to try and take part in next years event. Anyone been lucky enough to go?
And are there any other similar events?
GUMBALL rally is insane money unless you sleep on a bed of cash.

Hi Chopper,

Yes, I was lucky enough to go....I am writing this 4 hours after returning!!!

What an amazing week...Here's just a taster (I'll post more pics when I get them)

We had some great cars including Ferrari 458 Italia, Lambo LP570 Performante Spider, 9 AM V8s, Porsche 996/997 GT3, Nissan GT3 (The new one!), Mk1 'Sweeney' Granada, Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead amongst many others.

We started in Surrey last Sunday, drove over night to Bad Aussee in Austria for a sub-checkpoint, then onto Jochberg near Kitzbuhel, Tuesday saw us drive south into the Italian Dolomites then onto Zagreb. Wenesday was an incredible, exclusive track day at the 2 month old Red Bull Ring in Austria then onto Salzburg. Salzburg to Brussels Thursday and back to the Grove hotel near Watford on Friday. 2600 miles in total and..............

NOT A SINGLE SPEEDING TICKET WAS ISSUED TO ANY DRIVER! smile

Here's just a couple of pics....for now!:

Oatlands Park, Weybridge Departure


458 in the Dolomites




The Lambo sounded a bit special in the mountains!


The incredible Red Bull Ring!

That looks terrific. I just hope I get the chance to go in 2012.
The next challenge is to be part if the elusive tunnel runs through London!
Look forward to more pics!!
