    I just got this in the mail! I've been wanting GUMBALL RALLY on DVD for a long time, my other VHS copy is just about worn out that I bought from AUDIGUY. This is the movie that started it all for me & I'm sure most people here. I got it off EBAY for about $10 with shipping. If anyone needs to know, yes it is a bootleg copy but it works fine for me.

    Any features? Widescreen? Sound quality? Is it simply a VHS to DVD transfer?

    The sound quality is OK, I was testing my speakers with NYC starting sequence. (Always a classic.) There doesn't seem to be much pop or hiss that you would get with most copies. This is an old film so I wasn't expecting that much. It's not wide screen either but that would be great to have if it's still out there. The only feature it has is to shuffle though the various chapters in the film. This will tide me over until the widescreen Dolby 5.1 prologic, special features, director's cut, etc.. Ever comes out. 2006 will be the 30th anniversary for the Gumball Rally & I can't think of better way to release it on DVD.

    When is it from? Doesn't look like the DVD I've got from the Gumball. It's not the same as Gumball 3000? It cant be?

    All I have to say is "we don't need any rear view mirrors"!
