G.R.-
I wish these guys good luck too.
I think they're gonna need it.
From what I've read about the gumball3000 it's a bunch of trust fund kids and some British celebs. Basically your "more money then brains" group. I would love to participate in a cross country race, it would be the ride of a lifetime.
This one seems like more of a "conspicuous consumption" run. IMHO a trip like this should have the "challenge" of not having 100K cushion in your trunk. Getting in trouble is half the fun, with this much money and euro drivers licenses. How much danger are any of these guys in. Driving from 4 star hotel to hotel is not quite what Brock Yates had in mind.

It did seem that you were representing this as an original cobra on the site and probably to the people at gumball3000. No harm no foul. Just be straight with people.
The 15k is just the beggining from what I've read online many people drop 50-80K.
I wish you well. it may be a race to see what gives out first the cobra or you wallet. I'm sure it won't be you guys.
Have fun.

great site, right up our alley
Oh and if I were to do it I'd probably try it in a WRX Sti that would be fun.
