Nissan 370Z NISMO Heading To 2013 Gumball 3000
 
This is 3000 miles of hell. Interested to see how the VQ37 holds up. Should be fun!

I'd love to do the Gumball, but a $45,000 entry fee for two people is crazy!

I'd think the Z would hold up just fine unless there's a freak accident or something.



I'm thinking of doing the Gold Rush Rally though, sometime in the future. ~$7,000 entry fee. Much more reasonable with just as fashionable of cars.

It would be an awesome experience, but 45k is the starting cost. Then you have gas, food, tickets blaw blaw. Still would be allot of fun.

Why would you have to pay $45,000 to drive on public roads? If you follow along with them what can they say? "Sorry sir you cannot follow us on these public roads because you didn't pay the entry fee."

You can't party with them

What DE said.

That $45k gets you top notch everything - Plus, this years being in Europe, I believe they're going to the Monaco GP. May even get some track time if I'm not mistaken? :yum:

At the $45k price tag it sounds reasonable for a Monaco GP and track time, plus the lavish hotels, parties/clubs, etc. :tup:

Generally though, there's no GP or track time, so I wouldn't say it's worth it.

No doubt. It's a hefty price to get in, but they only want the richest of the rich. :rolleyes:

They just don't know how fun us middle-class people are! :gtfo2:

They're too busy snobbing it up rather than having fun! That and I would just crash their party, they can't keep track of EVERYONE!

Nice, the entry costs just as much as the car lol. :tup:

Actually, they do. :icon17: At least when you pull in for the stops and overnights.

You can cruise with them on the highways all you want though!
