Advice from the Ministry of Transport in the U.K. to Americans
planning to visit:

"Visitors are informed that in the United Kingdom traffic drives
on the left-hand side of the road. In the interests of safety,
you are advised to practise this in your country of origin for a
week or two before driving in the U.K."

 Every update from now on i am going to pick the "Car or Truck of the month" from MPM members rides.

 

This month it goes to Matt Ciucci's Dodge Dart.

 

If you were a living in the late 60's or early 70's you might just see a Dart just like this at the local dragstrip on Saturday night.

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

MAN CUTS CAR IN HALF TO MAKE A POINT

An outraged British man said he sawed his son's car in half after local authorities clamped it for no reason.

Ian Taylor, 40 of Tredworth, England, said he was so upset to find his son's Ford Fiesta was impounded, he was prompted to use a power disc cutter to chop it in half to stand up for his beliefs, the Sun reported Monday.

Taylor said the car was registered to be parked off the street, but the clamper nailed him because two inches of the back end was sticking out of the driveway.

"I had to make a point. The vehicle was totally legal where it was. It was a drastic step but I stand by my decision," Taylor said.

Taylor said he told the clampers they could take the back end of the car because it was the section that violated the rules.




 

 Here's an e-mail i received about the upcoming Gumball Rally 3000

 

To whom it may concern,

 We organize an annual super car rally called the Gumball 3000. Our 100 strong car rally will be starting on Nob Hill in San Francisco on the 9th August, however all of our cars will go on display on Friday 8th August and be on display throughout the night. We are closing down

Taylor Street

,

Cushman Street , Sacramento

Street and

Mason Street

at the 2 blocks outside the Fairmont Hotel, atop Nob Hill.

 

We are looking for 40 cars to join us on our car display on

Taylor Street

between

California Street

and

Sacramento Street

. Everything from supercars, to lowriders, American Muscle cars, custom cars, Hotrods and classic cars etc would be welcome. We feel it would be great to incorporate some local cars to make our display more of a spectacle for the public. All cars joining the line up on display will do the start the rally ie. Drive thru the checkered flag.

 

Our events always attract a HUGE crowd and will be a perfect opportunity to show off your rides. We have a giant Jumbotron LED screen at the end of the car display, and the whole car display will be barriered off so the public cannot get to your vehicles during the event display. We are creating a real car festival atmosphere for the display, this show will have a real concours d’elegance feel to it.

 

Schedule:

8th August

15.00 – Arrive with your vehicle in The Fairmont car park

19.00 – All cars driven onto the grid (2 Blocks outside Fairmont )

23.00 – 02.00 Gumball 3000 10th Anniversary World Tour start party at Temple SF.

 

9th August

11.00 Drivers ready in cars

12.30 RALLY START

Parade thru

Lombard Street

Following traveling thru Lombard Street all ‘display cars’ can now branch off out of the rally.

What we are offering:

We can offer 2 entries for each car to the party in Temple on the evening of the 8th August. As you will probably know Temple is one of the most exclusive venues in SF. There will be a big name guest DJ, hosted by Maximillion Cooper (Founder Gumball 3000) and the Cuban Brothers. This will be an A list party full of models and celebrities.

‘Behind the ropes VIP access’ at the car display on Nob Hill 8th and 9th August.

CNN and MTV will be filming the event at the car display, so again a great opportunity to show off your car/s to the masses!

Please contact me on this email if you are interested in attending this amazing 10th Anniversary Event. Please send a photo of any cars you are interested in bringing and contact details for drivers.

Please see attached our most recent press release, as you will see; this San Francisco event is the start of the Gumball 3000 10th Anniversary World Tour!

I hope to hear from you very soon! We are now only 3 weeks away....

Thanks,

___________
