On Sunday May the 1st at around 6.00pm local car enthusiast will be in for a real treat as the The Gumball 3000 Rally will be arriving in Scotland at the Cairnryan ferry terminal in Dumfries and Galloway before they head up to Edinburgh on their journet from Dublin to Bucharest. All 100 Gumball cars will be there, taking part in a 3000 mile journey. (Rumor has it – Although the route road names are not layed out it looks like they may be heading along the A77 possibly)
A spokes person for the rally stated “We will be docking around 6PM, make sure you’re there to see an array of the world’s most expensive, impressive and rare automobiles before they head off for Edinburgh.”
Founded in 1999 by British entrepreneur Maximillion Cooper, the annual Gumball 3000 tour has evolved into a week long festival of live music concerts, action sports and spectacular car shows hosted in capital cities, achieving live crowds of over one million people, and a televised and online audience that reaches over 100 million households in 60 countries.
