Its actually Gumball 3000. Yea,...Its pretty entertaining watching Mischief's documentary video on that.

Dude,..how about the damn Charger beating the Lotus's time on that challenge? The Charger is a beautiful and 'Powerful' car but its always struck me as an elliphant on stilts. I though for sure it was gonna loose to the Lotus. That was some great driving on their part.

I wish the t/a had more camera time. I did think the guys getting pulled over was a little odd

I'm pretty sure that the T/A will some time soon. So far Team T/A has been drama free. That may be why they're not be'n emphisized on yet! But they've been make'n great times on their runs so far so hopefully they make it all the way to the end. Hey,...as long as they kick the crap out of that lambo eventually i'm fine with the outcome whatever it may be.

Me too. Maybe it's just my biased slant, but i think it gets close to the least camera time, besides maybe the BMW. The only time i saw the BMW in the second episode was when they pulled in after stage two. Almost forgot about them lol.

Last year, I happened across an old VHS tape of Cannonball Run and watched one evening. The next day I was driving home from work in downtown South Bend, Indiana and I see all of these numbered racing cars parked in the hotel parking lots and people were working on them like crazy.

So I pulled in and found that it was the actual Cannonball and the cars were getting ready to start from the Tirerack the next day apparently. It was so surreal that I just happened to watch the movie the night before and here in South Bend, the race was actually going to start the next day at the Tirerack. Very cool thing to see, it must be awesome to participate in.

... "This is the Real Deal, all other events are just copies......" I don't think thats a fair statement to make. Unless you've actually participated in other events such as the I.E. 'Bullrun' then I don't think that you have the place to make that statement. Its your opinion but you sound a lil bias!...Although,.I completely agree with the trailer statement. I just hope we don't end up see'n the T/A on a trailer soon. lol! ...

Anyways!......

I'm try'n to remember but the Bullrun T/A is an A4 right?

Yeah it's an A4, it said on a video that they have already destroyed 4 - 460LE and now have a turbohydromatic 400 in there. They also said a few times that the car has 688hp. Mike, where the hell did that number come from?
