Default Gumball Rally 3000

Just found out about this. I don't know any details on times, but the Gumball Rally will be leaving New Orleans on Thursday traveling to Orlando, arriving at the Ritz Carlton.

Then on Friday they will leave the Ritz and head to Miami for the finish line at the Gansevoort Hotel.

[EDIT] Just found this for the Miami folks:

* May 8 - Orlando to Miami - arriving 5 PM for Car Display & Beach and Car Festival





More pics - http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/e60-m5-e6...os-angeles.html

I'd love to find out what time they are arriving in Orlando...might blast down to see the show.

I saw them come through Tallahasse probably 7years ago...was awesome. I'd just gotten the s2k and it was still rare enough to be a major head turner...ran with some of the Gumballars and got some waves from spectators thinking I was in the rally.

There is no car more stunning than a Veyron. It is the greatest car created in the history of mankind and could only be created by the a company like VW. Some day all will bow at the altar of Wolfsburg.

I read on a blog that the black one was impounded after the driver was clocked at 170. There is a pic of it being loaded on a flatbed.
