BrysSC400 Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I've been thinking...let's try to get a few LOC members together and compete in the Gumball Rally 2005...I think it would be a sweet testament to the racing spirit of Lexo owners. Let me know what you think. I'm volunteering my car. -Bryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bean_8044 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Is the Gumball Rally a contest of speed or just who finishes it? Both seem to be issues when going long distance from my expierence. You might want to consider a Supra six-speed diff to help out on the highway also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrysSC400 Posted July 9, 2004 Author Share Posted July 9, 2004 No it's not really a speed thing...you just drive a few hundred miles each day then party all night and repeat the next day until you get to the 3000 mile finish line. -Bryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin L Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 i think entry fee is in the tens of thousands of dollars, it also is very expensive to travel that far, and its not really a competition, only some of the people who join take it seriously (some fat guy in a Mercedes wins it everytime) gumball 3000 looks fun as hell, i wish one day i could join but i will want to have lots and lots of money in my pocket before i can join it. and i also think most the participants are millionaires... ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silkiechicken Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Yeah, millionares that get tons of tickets and enjoy eating plates of sour cream and whipped butter for $300 just for fun. :o If I had millions of dollars I would join.... that is many many many years away.. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWJ Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Come with me and USLOC to NOPI and have your own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrysSC400 Posted July 10, 2004 Author Share Posted July 10, 2004 Yeah the entry fee is $8,000 per one person car, and $10,000 per 2 person car. A lot of people get sponsors to pay for the fees. And yeah in response to the fat guy. He has raced a mercedes, GT2, and supposedly is going to get a WAY souped up M5 before too long. Anyway I think it would be fun as hell and how cool would that be if a Lex SC won the whole thing. -Bryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
