As we all looking forward to the last episode of Extreme Sport Channel, Team Torquenstein launched a fresh new video from last years rally! Probably it was hard to find a Gas station in Thailand, this experienced Team Torq as no other. About 120 cars needed some petrol for their car. Read the plan of Team Torq to get their car fueled as fast as they can: 

“The race to find fuel. Here is the start of the Gumball on the first day in Thailand. The cars were loaded on the Russian antonovs in Belgrade Serbia with little to no fuel. Our fuel was run down even further when the cars were loaded on the planes. When we picked up the Tork GT the fuel gage was BELOW empty!
We had to use our Gumball Spirit, to get to a fuel station as quickly as possible, not run out of gas, not get lost in a non-english speaking country and then find our way to Bangkok and get their first before the other 120 cars.

We quickly learned the Gumball lane was off limits in Thailand. Scooters are everywhere and safety is our #1 concern. Luckily we were prepared for this and was running High Intensity blue/amber LED flashers and had a very loud siren”

Watch the whole video how easy it is to find the nearest gas station…
