Hey John,

The attached pictures are from our 2007 Gumball 3000 Rally. The car is a 2007 Porsche 997 twin turbo with a Revo tuned computer and exhaust making 600 AWHP, 625lbs ft of torque. We added the lights, sirens, Valentine One and Blinder M45 for additional safety and protection from unwanted delay. The car performed flawlessly as did all equipment resulting in our completing the rally without a single speeding ticket. We did manage to get stopped and ticketed in Germany along with most of the other participants for participating in an illegal road race. Four hundred and forty Euro fine per car and a one hour delay that ended with a police escort to the Frankfort-Hahn airport. We also got pulled over in Montenegro after using the lights and sirens to negotiate about 20 miles of two lane road and safely passing a traffic accident before reaching a police check point. The police waived us over looked at our passports and told us to slow down but never even mentioned the lights and sirens. Our rally was cut short do to a tragic accident in Montenegro resulting in two deaths at which time the rally was cancelled out of respect for the deceased. This unplanned cancellation detoured us to Zagreb Croatia for a night and we dropped the cars off in Vienna Austria the next day to be shipped home to San Diego.

We are using the same car for 2008 Gumball 3000 which will have us starting in San Francisco off to Los Angeles for the night and then on to San Diego for a night then to Las Vegas. From Vegas the rally drivers will all fly to Pyongyang North Korea (Can you belive that, these guys are flying into North Korea???) for a night and attendance at the Mass Games and then on to Hangzhou China driving to Shanghai for the night and then off to Xuzhou for a night and then the last day will end in Beijing at the closing ceremony of the Olympics. After we finish the cars will be on display in Tiananmen Square. All of our safety and warning devices will be put to the test in California and Nevada and we are not expecting much police activity in China. (Nick, China incorporates photo radar on many of their major toll roads, and some toll booths are said to demand fines at the booth)

I will send you pictures once we get back from China.

Thanks for all your help.

Nick
