it is about $12,000-13,000 to enter. that includes you and a passenger, all 5 nights roomed at a 5 star hotel, all food paid, your gumball3000 medal and any trophies you might win. hopefully ill actually be there to compete next year.

Gumball 3000 is like a "lil" road trip for rich people.
Gumball 3000 not a race? Why did i see in the video a guy going 208 MPH?
That was the funniest car video i've ever seen. What they say and do.
Dado (Yellow M3) his car got stolen...which sucks....but he got a new M3 and is getting a stage 2 or 3 AA Turbo (Active Autowerks)..so he'll have like...500-600 HP i think..but its gonna be evil!


I like BMWs

fucking joke. read what brock yates has to say about it. unfortunately the times have changed since the days of the cannonball sea to shining sea, and these rich fuckers are going to get someone killed. you don't see dan gurney entering do you? just a bunch of faggot entertainers who have two weeks at bondurant, and too much brie and foi gras in their gullet.

dude whatever you are too and asshole. ha ha.

no man I wasn't talking to you. I was talking to drift ninja who claims he's going to gumball 3000 that costs 12000 bucks to enter into. I just found that hard to belive.

you're cool duder, you always send some decent stuff to the board and aren't a poser like so many other guys who come here that share your age.


Sorry Jason..... I didn't mean what I said. I'm totally ashamed of myself.
