Kenny, just drop me an email and I'll throw it over via some IM client or an ftp server somewhere. Bud - What do you think of the Hamann products? This week, I'll be opening a second US branch of a company, which is an authorized North American distributor for Hamann. I can also get Tubi as well. |

I turned down two of the 100 spots for the u.s. Gumball when I received my invitations in the mail. Last years event was around $3000.00 U.S.D. Because of all of the media coverage they raised the price to $8,500.00 U.S. to enter. They cover your hotel and dinner but not your speeding tickets, Injuries or automobile damages. I was thinking with some company logos that it would make a nice tax write-off, But no, That is an ADDITIONAL $10,000.00, Thank You, but I would rather buy a Tubi, and a few other nice parts for the 360. |

I drive thru Eastern Europe for a month 14 years ago. I agree protection would have been wise. I was with my brother so people did not mess with two guys easily but we had some close calls. we planned to do it again this year with F-cars (had my Saab back then) but i think he wold is too unstable for to just up a leave my kids for a risky adventure. We did stay in excellent hotels when they were available so that made it quite a joy ride. |

I saw that Jackass a few months ago. Convinced me to never drive through eastern Europe unless I had some protection. |

I saw the original show on the BBC with Ruby Wax in the a car with Damon Hill racing arounf London prior to the race. It was a good show, but still not as good as the real races that were undercover in this country. |

This last sunday, MTV's show JACKASS had a Jaguar racing in the GUMBALL 3000. There were many Ferrari 360's, 355's, & a 355 spyder that gets trashed in a high speed flip when the car hit a cow. (ouch!) For anyone thats ever seen JACKASS, this is someting to behold. Very disturbing, but funny. Just wanted to share this with the group. |
