EUROPE (1000 miles):

Kicking off, we've got the Premiere of the "Aiya" boys Gumball film called 'Drivin' Me Crazy' on Saturday 29th April here in Central London, followed by a party with 'Goldie Lookin Chain' performing along with guest celebrity DJs. This will be a late one!
SUNDAY 30th April:
This is the start day! Cars will park on "display" in Gumballs own "pit-lane" on Pall Mall (London W1, between Trafalgar Square and St. James Palace) between 3-4 PM, and the flag will drop between 4-6 PM, sending drivers en route to a Midnight checkpoint in Belgium via the Eurotunnel. "Attention all Belgian's" to come and cheer us at Chateau de Beloeil, home to the Princes de Ligne between 10PM - 1AM! (Address: Chateau de Beloeil, rue du Chateau, 11, Beloeil, Hainaut, just 40 miles from Brussels)
Monday 1st May:
After driving thru the night they'll be a breakfast checkpoint in Austria will be in Vienna between 6 - 10 AM at the Kursalon (centrally located with easy accessibility (U4 subway) in Vienna's beautiful inner-city park on Johannesgasse), after which cars drive to Budapest, arriving between Midday - 4PM at the "Chain Bridge." We want everyone in Hungary to come to see us arrive!
Tuesday 2nd May:

Saturday 6th May:
After collecting their cars from SLC Airport, all 120 amazing vehicles will 'parade' to downtown SLC to the Utah Jazz home at the Delta Centre for you all to see between 10-11AM. Then they're all driving to the new race track outside SLC called 'Miller Motorsports Park' - this is a great opportunity to watch these beauties at full speed, and all we'll also be putting on a 'drift racing' display!
Then get yourselves to Las Vegas to the Hard Rock Hotel that evening between 5-8PM to watch the cars arrive. That night hip hop legend 'Snoop Dogg' will be doing an "exclusive" Gumball performance at 'The Joint' inside the Hard Rock. This will be crazy!
Sunday 7th May:

Rodeo Drive will be closed for the finish, where cars will then be parked on display until 7PM before parading to the Beverly Hilton Hotel. That night Gumballers will party with Playmates at the famous Playboy Mansion where DJ AM, Blink 182's Travis Barker and **** star Ron Jeremy will mix the tunes for the nights party! Who will win the coveted 'Spirit of the Gumball Trophy' this year???

Last I checked, there was a big *** pond between the UK and the US... So, how are they supposed to get over here with their cars? When you ship a car over, it takes FOREVER to get through customs and all that. Maybe they are going to FedEx them. I've been told they can have them there overnight!
