They used Cobras at LeMans covering a similar distance years ago with some success at real race speed in a REAL race. Check out the history books.
The Gumball is IMHO an idiot get together for people with more money than brains to pretend race and in most cases no driving talent in a "rally" on public roads from one high priced hotel party to the next leaving automotive carnage and empty liqour bottles in their wake.
In my mind it gives the namesake movie a bad image.
It's a money making gig.
No car is the right car for those idiots. They should really be taking "party buses".
