Guest Andrew Report post Posted November 9, 2005 A gumball rally is a retarded idea and will never happen. And a mass cruise across the country will never happen. A meet somewhere has happened and does each year - although driving isn't involved really and we don't park up and get a massive line of dirty bmws.

Dnz 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2005 But as soon as the word gumball is used, its not gonna happen. Theyre would be some severe car mangleage, injury and or death. Not to mention the issue of a huge bunch of young guys trying to get to one destination. Im sure the police love those. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
325_driver 422 Report post Posted November 9, 2005 ok i knew the gum ball rally was never going to be a good idea how bout what soughta places u guys all met up at ? i know there prob have been various piss ups at places and stuff like that ma folks have got a massive property / batch down in taupo that i reakon one year would be a good idea to all meet up at ? since its close enough to the middle of the north island Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*bM** 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2005 A gumball rally is a retarded idea and will never happen. I know of a race that happends across nz, kinda a gumball rally. I havnt raced in it (although i would love to), I dont know how often or when they race but what i do know is you must be invited and you must have a huge amount of money and a conection within the group. Auckland to Auckland, no real rules just a meeting point in auckland, wellington, queenstown and back again. no money but prizes are involed, i think its more a group of rich old boys havin some fun. I have a couple of customer that have hint that they race, all wealth bisness men with AMG cars. Its well talked about at my work tho no one knows much about it. A RS4 Wagon won it last time round so the rumours go. Any one hear of a similar thing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bimmer boy 21 Report post Posted November 9, 2005 Yeah I think a Gumball type rally would be cool, but would never work and can see it going wrong in all possible ways... just wait for the big annual meet, the perfect excuse to get pissed breakfast, lunch and dinner, and a little bit of driving (not drink driving though) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
