Myself and Jodi_the_G are organising a large gumball rally accross europe and though we should offer something similar to Corsasport but on a smaller scale and cost so that everyone can come and take part.

The event will be run over a weekend, starting early Saturday morning and finishing Midday Sunday.

The route will be around Northern France and Belgium and will cover 500 miles approx. There will be prizes for the winners and runners up.

This is NOT a speed based event so it doesn't matter what car you've got as long as it is reliable.

Not only is this a great chance for a great weekend of fun but there will also be Hypermarket stops (cheap beer, fags etc) and camping on the Saturday night.

So before we can get down to organising the details of this event we need to get a rough idea of numbers who want to attend.


  • Please remember you need to be aged 18 or over to drive over in Europe
  • You will need to check that your insurance covers you for europe
  • European Breakdown cover is highly recomended

    Could be a laugh... though its a shame I only have a Sxi lol...

    where would the stops be at? i.e. gumball was at nice hotels, casino's and museums / tracks...

    Our's would be what? camp sites?

    I reckon you should open it up to a wider auidence... invite other groups along... there are a lot of people that would like a gumball style thing but don't have really nice cars / big wallets.

    Also definately need stickers and stuff so people can see a load of cars with (gumball) or whatever stickers on the side.
