How exactly do these Bullrun, Gumball deals work? I dont understand how people can participate and come out the other end with a valid license and insurance coverage on their cars. I have seen highlight videos and stuff of these deals in the past and they guys are like...."if you didnt go to jail today, you werent trying hard enough." SO, lots of tickets for excessive speeding and racing...how can you possibly come out the other side with your license intact, as well as being able to continue insuring your car? I realize alot of these guys that do this have alot of money, but still. Money doesnt keep your license from getting revoked after you get your third ticket for 140 in a 70.

Im just curious. Im sure its a helluva lot of fun to do.

 

The cops are slightly more leniant for the gumball / bullrun people. Unless you're doing something absolutely dumb (like 190) and you're not at the back of the pack you can normally make it through. Alot of people that do the gumball are foreign anyways so losing their license here doesn't matter, they just ship their car back home. Keep in mind that the entry cost for these. The Gumball in 2008 was 120k per car and now it's like ~50k...so if you can drop that for a race, you can do the same for a good lawyer.

 

I guess that's a few races I wont be participating in lol

Also, I want to invite all the tristate evo members to the launch saturday morning. I will post location in a few and ill be there with my Evo X and most likely my rs4.

I am also getting the car stickered up and such and will post pics this week. Ill also keep updating this thread with evo X pictures from here to Las vegas....hopefully none of those pictures will be from a police impound

 

Call me tommorow, we should be able to get it done.

Sean

 

awesome!! You are the man!

 

Hey Sean,

I just left a message with someone at your shop Parts will be here tomorrow morning. Thanks again for squeezing me in!

 

in all the bullruns i have seen the cops attempt to learn the route set up stings and just make them pay a huge fine if im not mistake the money goes to charity for the entry fee. I thought it was only 10k to enter. then break the law radar jammer light changers whatever it takes to be first. Yes most of the people that do this are rich so 50k - 60k in tickets is nothing

 

we saw the gumball guys here in Maine. Good luck with it. Update the thread when you can.

 

good luck... update wit that location i would definately come to watch the launch!

 

Good luck man, show em what the Evo is made of

 

the gumball is way badass wish i could afford it. but agreed about that douche on the bullrun god dam guy went retard strong

 

evo is running awesome. Only problem is that the tank is smaller than my bladder and I have to fill up every 180 miles

got stopped in ohio once.

mad props to sean ivey and ams for making it happen (will post the full review later).

Pics and full writeup to follow tomorrow.

 

I hope you're having fun!

 

Didnt see an evo 8 or 9. But i have seen a black evo X with gold decals a few times.
