The story at the first 3 minutes of this 90minute video is very funny

Can't wait, driving 3 continents in a week... All I need is $70k and a supercar to secure one of the last 8 spots...


More info and videos from previous gumballs at

Re: Gumball 3000 the movie

it was 97 minutes and 44 seconds. i actually watched it since i was bored earlier today. i checked since i was bored also on how much gumball 2006 would cost...40000GBP, or $71000 us...everything is included but gas(hotel, food, snacks, parties).

The Event follows a 3 stage, 3000 mile driving route that incorporates Europe, Asia and the United States.
Stage 1 Europe - London (UK) to Istanbul (Turkey) The cars and participants will then be flown to Hong Kong.
Stage 2 Asia - Hong Kong to Beijing (China). The cars and participants are then flown across the pacific to the USA.
Stage 3 Salt Lake City (USA) to Los Angeles (USA) via Las Vegas
