I couldn't find it either. That spyker was actually a gorgeous car!

I don't believe the Zonda was racing, it was on loan from Rio Prestige car hire.

Does anyone know why Team Polizei is in Athens in a VW Sheron not the M5. Is it on the plane and they are waiting to get it back?

Stinky · 1 May 2007 at 17:28

taht would explain the spyker as that had the numberplate RIO

Is the TrackTheGumball map right? It looks way off, says some of the drivers are still in London, 044 Polizei is in Germany. Does this mean some of the cars still havent flown out yet?

check if it says online or offline in the bubble

The_One · 1 May 2007 at 19:59

a lot were offline because they were being transported to the next start point

Indeed it would, it wasnt the slaphead driving its name then

Is anyone going to go and watch the finish?

Stinky · 3 May 2007 at 11:20

where is the finishing line?

caeteez · 3 May 2007 at 17:05

In London again, not sure when or where though. Think I heard Leicester Sq. somewhere.

Parliament Square, London

This is why I hate this kind of reckless event.

Jebus, That Golf Crumbled

Accidents happen, wather you drive a g-whiz or a Ferrari Enzo... but running away from a fatal accident... :mad:

al123 · 3 May 2007 at 18:33

They should not of ran, doing that just makes it worse and backs up peoples argument that it’s a dangerous event.

Hope the guys wife pulls through.

Crashing into someone in a car that loads of people know that you are in then legging it. Dumbasses really IMO.
Hate to think what this is going to hold in store for the possibility of the next Gumball.

What on earth would posess anyone to run from a car covered in their names and sponsorship decals?

Wicksta · 3 May 2007 at 18:38

It appears the organisers are trying to cover it up as well, inculding shutting down the forum. Apparently people have also been told to shut up about it.

Team Polizei have withdrawn from the Gumball due to the death today.

I have so much respect for Alex and Michael for doing that
