Team 55 driving a BMW M5 or a Mazda RX8 ?


This picture was taken in Calais (France) yesterday by the Gumball3000blog crew. On the official Gumball 3000 list, Team 55 was listened with a BMW M5. Yesterday we saw this Mazda RX8 with number 55 stickers on it. We hope to give an explanation as soon as possible.

Rumour goes that the guys in the RX-8 are non-paticipant and they where trying to get in the rally, instead of the M5. Don’t know if it’s true, just a rumour.

Sounds weird, but it can be true. Thanks for your comment.

The RX-guys are non-participant and they have a website over at http://www.westcoaststunters.be/index.php.

I can confirm that those guys don’t compete in the Gumball Race. They putted the posters on their car and they did cought by the police because they think they competed with the Gumball. They also did manged to enter the chateau in Belgium…

I was responsible for welcoming Gumballer in Beloeil. They tried to enter the Castle but were not Gumballer due to the absence of Gumball Passeport. But good job from them, they nearly succeed.
