Does anybody know of any road rally, gumball 3000 type events going on right now? I saw three cars with graphics and numbers crossing the queenston-lewiston bridge tonight. One was a BMW 7 sreies I think and the other two were the same but I can’t figure put what they were. Its really bugging me to figure out what they are. Can’t really give much of a description, the most distinct feature is exhaust outlets above the rear bumper, not center exit but in between side and center. Convertible, grand touring type of cars, some chrome, pretty unique styling, possibly British. I know I have seen these before but Can’t figure it out. ---
