The Fireball Run, A Rally With A Purpose


The Fireball Run has a unique take on the transcontinental rally experience. The rally is composed of 100 teams who embark on a 3500 mile nine-day adventure from Baton Rouge, Louisiana to Grand Rapids, Michigan. Each Fireball Run team is assigned a different missing child, through the Child Rescue Network, and eah team must draw as much attention to as possible by speaking with the communities and distributing as many posters as they can along the 3500 mile trek. The first year, 2007, helped to find 12 missing children. Fireball Run 2: Back to the Track will run from September 25th - October 4th and will have an 1980s themed auto rally. Entry costs $6800 per vehicle inclusive and to enter you must be referred by an existing team (you can apply via the web but the chances of getting picked are slimmer).

The Perils of Ferrari Rallies

Ferrari rallies are a great summer diversion for lucky Ferrari owners but you might want to watch local speed limits. In Oregon, where the Ferrari Challenge Rally: The Rally of Northern Oregon was taking place this week, state troopers have cited at least twelve participants in the rally. An Oregon news source reports that one enthusiastic driver was was ticketed for going 123 miles an hour.

Classic Car Club Plans Rally to Hell

It's not as flamboyant as the Gumball 3000 but if you are interested in a little less mileage and a lot of fun you might want to check out the Classic Car Club Manhattan's first ever rally. The club is taking twenty cars including a new Ford GT, a 355 Ferrari Spyder,  a '67 Chevelle Super Sport and a customized '68 Lincoln Continental (shown here) to Miami in a little jaunt they call the Rally to Hell. Celebrity participants will be Dan and Justin Hawkins from the band, The Darkness and TLC's Overhaulin' co-host Chris Jacobs. The rally starts on May 18 and lasts three days. The finale is in Miami on May 20 and the participants will catch a flight back to New York on the May 21.

Tracking the Gumball 3000 Online

It's Gumball 3000 time again. The rally for the rich and speedy, which dashes through Europe started on April 30 with 240 drivers in 120 cars. This year you can track the race online through the CoPilot satellite navigation service which lets you see where the drivers are and who is driving what. It's just part of the Gumball 3000 live website which includes video clips and pictures (the checkpoint in Vienna is shown here). The eight-day rally started in  London and will wind up in Los Angeles on May 7. Trouble has already hit some of the Gumballers, some cars were impounded by German police.
