Photos from the Gumball 3000 checkpoint in Charlotte.

On Thursday, my friend told me the gumball rally was going to stop at the Nascar Hall of Fame here on Friday. So we went and it was pretty awesome. The cars would show up 1 to 4 at a time over 3 hours instead of all at once. Enjoy the photos.






























...moar..

Gumball and GoldRush are separate rallies, I am surprised that they didn't cross paths though. I follow both on FB and IG closely. I think the BullRun Rally is going on too

I've seen a few of the GoldRush cars during car week in Monterey. If I had to pick, I'd do Goldrush


Nice pics OP

All of these photos were made possible by the owner of this nsx, whom was the one that told me about this event. If he didn't tell me, I never would have known I don't think.




The end.

I can't be the only one who hates seeing all those vinyls and graphics on the F40 and P1.

Oh and that G 6X6...

It's just part of the rally. Seems most cars that participate in events like this do it. Most wrap the car anyway to protect it... so they wrap it with some funky design. Stickers are mostly either event sponsors, car/team sponsors, or donors (many of the rallies raise money for charity)...
