Gumball 3000 - Buffalo

WTF i wish i could of seen this!!! i knew i shouldve taken the day off!!

did anybody see a matte black Ferrari F430?

Yea, I know it sounds odd, but the two gumball cars were just steaming along in a straight line and you could see and hear them quite a ways away.

The other two cars in their attempts to keep up were weaving, passing on the right, and hitting the shoulder. In this particular case they were the bigger hazard to others on the road.

twin turbo :]

Those two guys were coming from NYC? ^^^^ Did they leave a white cooler in times square?

In cars that are built for these kinds of speeds, with driver’s who have just done a few thousand miles together at speed which makes things very much more predictable than usual. Having some asshat trying to keep up in a lifted pickup or a buick cutting people off left and right to try and catch you makes things 1000x worse.

Do you take stupid pills?

got pics of a ferarri too, i’ll have to post later when we get to the hotel, pretty awesome to see some of these cars on the road having the shit beat out of them. makes the 4.5hr drive even better

Jesus… How many fucking time can people use seen and saw incorrectly in a thread

Are you sure you want to know?

i ended up driving to rochester today with my lady and ran into a bunch of dudes. it was sweet seeing 3 astons, a GT2 and a 599 at the gas station then rolling down the highway with them since they were mostly going the speed limit… except the GT2 guy who was ripping. <3 GT2’s


I don’t really give a fuck how “predictable” you think these are. In addition to the possible few experienced drivers that may do these rallys, there are also many celebrities, and actors too. And oh yeah, a few people died during a Gumball a few years ago. Are you seriously justifying this on public roads and asking if I take stupid pills? Really?

I saw that chrome colored gallardo on sheridan by the 190 today around 3 by himself, or one similar. Looked like he had just pulled all the stickers off of it. When these guys have euro registration I wonder how that flies with the police around here.

A Few? Really? Try doing some fucking research. Seeing as how you’ve never done ANY events similar to this you don’t have a fucking clue what you’re talking about in terms of knowing how others drive at high speeds for extended periods and how to deal with the public in said situations. Your regular fool in a buick causes more issues (and potential) trying to catch ralliers than the participants do. We had a guy flip over his RV and truck trying to take photos of us and drive at the same time a few years ago, sent a couple people to the hospital and blocked up a major interstate in Iowa.

:lol:

I saw the “really reflective silver” Gallardo rolling down the 190 in the Lewiston area around 2pm yesterday.

X…

all it takes is one idiot on the road not paying attention going to change lanes or something and it quickly becomes bad news. dont matter what car, “experienced driver” or celebrity it is so i dont know how you can argue it is safe

You should go back and read my posts, not once in them did I use the word safe.

Meh, rich people can S my D.

Cool cars and all, but whatever.

Thank you! This is awful.
