my god do I love Top Gear! Awesome programOriginally posted by raceman
Well first off the GT3 is a wonderfull track day car and weekend play thing, but I would not do the Gumball in one, in standard form way to stiff, yours eyes will of fallen out of their sockets by the end of the event.
And where you get $560k from I dont know, they are about Euro 90/110k new and I have seen versions second hand with little miles on the clock in the UK for £56k.
One of the best "motoring" YV show's on the planet id on UK TV and they have their own track next to the studios, its called "TOP GEAR" they took the GT3 around the track in damp conditions and it beat evrything else to the point they where going to bring it back and do it again on a full dry track.

Better than the koenigsegg was a dude on the 2000 Gumball doing it in his Mclaren F1, I was doing about 150 mph at the time over the moutain roads between Spain and France and i'm nopt kidding you I tell you he went past me as if I was fucking stationary, he had to be well over 200 mph at the time, I never even got the chance to wave at him.........
Same dude also got a special trophy for the most spent in a bar in one night, great hotal in the Black Forrest (Germany) he dumped £6,000 between 3 of them. Surffice it to say he was still to pissed the next day to drive so the dude I mentioned in an earlier post that had his 550 confiscated drive them to Paris....... such is the Gumball

Great stories Raceman! (I'm not the same Maximill he's referring to by the way)
Raceman what other purpose to people ride in the gumball for besides the thrill of racing in an event of such caliber?
sponsorship perhaps?

I talked alot to raceman and looked at every movie thats out there.

Sure it´s a rush to but I think they have so much fun..I mean wtf..driving in a row of 150 sports cars out from a city..can that be booring?CumSensei say: SEO traffic makes big boom boom.Comment

If you are seriously looking at the GT3 as a street car. I can hook you up with a number of different guys that own GT3's.
From what I understand,dollar for dollar the TT is an easier car to drive fast than the GT3 is.You might not be as anonymous as you think you are.Comment

Is the porsche GT3 a good buy?
This one would go for 799 thousand swedish kronor.
about $560K
Is the car a good buy or is there better cars for that prize?
Im planning on buying this or maby a MB SLK.
Will be used to drive the gumball 3000 next year.

Maximillion,
Its really about taking part in the whole experience and having some great fun at the same time, Ive loved everyone of them and you meet some truly amazing people, just take the Jackass Crew, the thing is that even though a lot of the people doing the Gumball are in fact very wealthy guys and girls, there aint any class difference at all, all the class crap goes out the window and it does not matter weather you are driving a Ferrari or a Mini to everyone you are a "FELLOW GUMBALLER"
The dude that owned the Mclaren F1 (mentioned earlier) was one of the nicest guys ive ever met a real gentleman, he paid £650,000 for the Mclaren and he used it as he daily road car in London, he never shoved any of his wealth down anyones throat.
So its a lot of things really "Maximillion Cooper" got one thing right for sure, there aint any bullshit its "GUMBALL"

Be a man, go buy yourself a 50,000 dollar Supra turbo, put $100,000 into it, and you can have well over 1000 horsepower. Well over. Maybe 1200 or so with race gas and a pretty wild setup. If you have the money you can get something stupid like 1400 horsepower. http://www.t04r.com/ has some examples of 1000+ horsepower cars. Get yourself the Real Time Traction Control system and you will have the fastest car in the entire rally.
Oh yeah....
http://www.t04r.com/toptenhp.html
That's the top ten horsepower for that site. Mind you, those figures are measured at the rear wheels, so add about 20% to find the "actual" horsepower at the engine. My car is down the list under the previous owner's name, Derek Wang.Last edited by Huggles; 02-29-2004, 08:04 AM.https://3-veo.com/

$150,000 for a Japanese shite bucket with body mods, I'd look like a boy who has just found out about masterbation instead of a "man" as you so put it.
$150,000 = £79,000 <----- that would buy you a nice second hand 360 Modena that you sell for the same money after the rally

Well actually, if you bought a slow ass GT3 you'd look more like a lady considering those things are fucking slow. Does it even make 400 horsepower? I'm guessing you'd consider the GT3 because it has enough room for your 4 bags of luggage. Did you look into the option of an automatic?

Nice cars, but pretty common in the rally among the Too Old, Too Slow crowd.

Yeah, drink your bottled water and drive your slow Porsche. I merely suggested an alternative to a car that can't spin the tires in second gear.https://3-veo.com/

My prices are very high, realistically for $100,000 US you could have a 1200 horsepower Supra.
The Koenigsegg looks bad ass. The Supra isn't as flashy. All depends on what you want, if you want the fastest car there, I'd go with a Supra.Last edited by Huggles; 02-29-2004, 08:45 AM.https://3-veo.com/

Benchracing on GFY is lame.
The Supra would out accelerate the Koenigsegg all the way to the Supra's top speed, which a 2 minute search on Supraforums.com, would be 207 mph.https://3-veo.com/

Hey Huggles, I tell you what you get your 1200 bhp Supra and I will choose car a third of that bhp, pick a race track, any race track in the world and i bet you $5,000 I will lap you 5 times in a 100 laps.
Now get the fuck out of this sensible thread with your bhp theories.
seems to me your no idea on what your talking about.

I'll well aware of what a Paul Mumford style driver is capable of while driving a car with less power against an inexperienced driver.
HOWEVER YOU FUCKING SHITWAD, we're not talking about racetracks, are we?
Let's see, how much of a bird brained, ass spelunking downs' syndrome short bus riding bitch are you? We're talking about the OPEN FUCKING HIGHWAY, not a race track. If we were talking about RACE TRACKS your point would make sense. Fuck it, since you've obviously got too many nuts on your chin to even be able to read past the pubic hair properly to see what in the fuck you're replying to, I'll completely change the subject too. Fuck, Topbucks rules. Holy shit I love Topbucks. Damn.
Fuck me, my P4 3.06 HT is a sweet fast machine. I bet on a RACE TRACK your Porsche / Ferrari would kick my ass but DAMN would I out load your car to Windows XP.
Now get the fuck out of this sensible thread with your bhp theories.
There's about as much sense in this thread as heterosexuality in your body.
seems to me your no idea on what your talking about.

Raceman, what about a tuned Subaru Impreza...Will that be fully blown away, or would you say, well you can drive the gumball with that car? Just curious what you think, because not everyone can afford Ferrari's :-) (subaru is here 42.000EURO)


340HP

oh Huggles you do seem to have gotten angry whilst posting to this jolly thread, WOW man you have some issues to deal with.
I can just see you now as one of those adolescents that get a Supra and mod it and go WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE in a straight line an then hurt some granny crossing the road in the process, Oh YOOPPEE DEEEE straight line speed.
Well sonny there are loads of bends on European highways and your proposed solution to something you will never ever partisipate in is a NO NO.
I think I will stick with the Porsche, do the 2004 Gumball and all the others and leave you to dream about it.
BTW what has "TOPBUCKS" got to do with a gumball thread
all other comments to my person will be ignored.
