British gumball run - 4th Aug 2005 10:45am
My mate was runnin round work last night askin for sponsors as he is doing the cannonball run uk (may be worded differently but you all know what they are) Its 1200 miles round britain in 3 days with most of the money going to children in need.
He is doing it in his GTO which is modified engine wise a fair bit. Pushin well over 400 BHP apparently.
Id love to do something like this but you just know your gonna lose your liscense as the aim is to do 1200 miles in 3 days in a "race" your gonna attract police attention and unlike the one in europe it wont be a case of giving the french courts some money or whatever. Youll get points,and more points and so on til ur banned. I wish him all the best and hope he does well and dont get in trouble.
Anyone else heard of this and thinkin of takin part?
