Fun_in_my_z Posted December 8, 2004 Share #2 Posted December 8, 2004 To bad theirs not one here in the usa. Do you think there will realy be a rally? That would be awsome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomoHawk Posted December 8, 2004 Author Share #3 Posted December 8, 2004 I don't have ANY idea where you could go 200 MPH, except in an airplane, and the German Autobahn doesn't go to too many cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sahunt66 Posted December 8, 2004 Share #4 Posted December 8, 2004 I don't know... looks like a hoax to me. Two of the proposed routes go through Communist China. I lived in China for several months. It's not the kind of place you'd want to race though in a super car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bambikiller240 Posted December 8, 2004 Share #5 Posted December 8, 2004 Yeah, several of the proposed routes are implausible at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zrush Posted December 8, 2004 Share #6 Posted December 8, 2004 It's the Nigerian Rally! They'll send the money for you to pre-register, then you forward back the remaining funds over the cost of registration. Plus you must ship your car over prior to the rally for inspection. Bye, Bye car and bye, bye money.Insider fix, you get caught going 200+, your car is confiscated by "local" authorities, then they chop or sell your car on the black market.Vicky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chino 240Z Posted December 8, 2004 Share #7 Posted December 8, 2004 Notice these clowns pictures of themselves acting like they are doing some race thing or something. A phase scrolled by, which is probably their inside motto: "Catch us if you can" !!! :stupid: after they have your money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfadog Posted December 8, 2004 Share #8 Posted December 8, 2004 This looks like it's heavily sponsored by Kim Schmitz of previous Gumball fame. I have heard that he was unhappy with last year's Gumball (he won it) as it was letting in too many boring cars (such as 360 Modenas and 911s). So this makes perfect sense, and I bet you it's legit.

TomoHawk Posted December 9, 2004 Author Share #9 Posted December 9, 2004 Do they have, like PAVED roads in China?? I mean the kind you can gto 200 MPH on?thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bambikiller240 Posted December 9, 2004 Share #10 Posted December 9, 2004 Not all of the routes go through China, so whether China does or doesn't have paved roads built well enough for 200 mph means very little as to whether the event is real or not. I doubt anyone of us here is going to really know if it is real or not until the event is history (one way or the other). It's not the sort of event that can be "announced" or allowed to become public knowledge, for obvious reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inf Posted December 9, 2004 Share #11 Posted December 9, 2004 Do they have, like PAVED roads in China?? I mean the kind you can gto 200 MPH on?thx Yeah because the United States is clearly the only country on earth capable of making decent roadways.
