Default Gumball 3000 2010 Cruise Video

Me and bunch of my friends cruised upto Quebec City from Toronto to join the Gumball this year and cruise back to Toronto... Here is our Adventure http://vimeo.com/11743545 Thanks to our Camera Crew who caputured some amazing Footage, including me Booked and ticketed... Im in my Silver 996 C4S, in my Classic Red Polo :P...

Anyways onces to got to Quebec City me and my brother managed to talk to Max Copper and he let us offically join the Rally From Quebec City to NYC, But we only Did till Toronto... We got my P-Car all Stickered up, got the VIP Passes, Wrist Bands and Checkpoint Cards for the Leg... Once we got back to Toronto, we did the Offical Parade which was Awesome Experiance... Every Gumballer we had a conversation with was very cool and down to earth, unlike to Local's Here :P

Wow the popo really had it out for you guys! Never seen anywhere near that many cops on the 401 between Ottawa and Toronto before!

Good video Zook, looks like a LOT of fun! Only recommendation is to dim the music when the cars are revving!

Nice vid, what did you get the slip for? Seems like the OPP made a bold attempt to make their presence noticed. From the shots it looks like most participants were well manered.

One of the hydraulic fluid hoses failed.
Got fixed the next morning & was up and running again.

I think the Gumball 3000 is going on my bucket list, this is something I have to experience from start to finish in my lifetime.

What are some other events similar to this that may be a little closer to home? I know of the "Gatorun" in south Florida but doesnt look like its on this year and then there's the Gold Rush Rally on the West Coast for a bargain 9K in June this year.

My friend and I would love to partake in something like this next year.
