SCREWBALL RALLY (30THJUNE-2NDJULY 2005)

[Gumball]

HI

Below are the details for the SCREWBALL RALLY. This event runs in a couple of months. Has now limited spaces. Should be a real blast!!! I intend to take part in this and think given the distances and timescales, its probably best for 2 bodies and 1 car alternating the driving.

I know, and i caused it that theres been hilarity, upset and headaches regarding all the talk about gumballing over the last few weeks............................but is anyone else interested in doing this? seriously.

SCREWBALL RALLY 2005

SCREWBALL?

JOHN O GROATS TO LANDS END

DATE: 30th JUNE - 2nd JULY

COST: £450

DEPOSIT: £150

ENTRY OPTION 1: 1 car with 2 people

ENTRY OPTION 2: 2 cars with 1 person per car

Entry fee to the Screwball covers either option 1 or 2, which ever is chosen will include 4 nights in hotels, breakfasts each morning and tickets to Max- power live.

The Screwball is for all makes and models of cars, modified or not, although modified would be better. Also its for the people like my self who have watched things like the Gumball, Cannonball run etc but can't afford the massive entry fee. Screwball will begin on the Thursday 30th of June from John O Groats, but entrants and passengers must be at the hotel the day before (Wednesday 29th) to register, this will also give the Screwballers a chance to get to know each other.

On Thursday we will drive from John O Goats to Birmingham, sounds like a piece of cake when you read it like that, but it ain?t, its a 576 mile journey, give or take a couple. It will be a long drive but that?s what its all about, if your reading this and having doubts then stop reading cause this run ain?t for you, this run is for the real car enthusiasts its not for the faint hearted. You will arrive at the hotel in Birmingham and have a well earned rest, you will need it. The next morning, Friday 1st of July the cars will leave at the same time and start the last leg of the journey, a round trip from Birmingham to Lands End and back to Birmingham, which is 600 miles. And that will be the end of the journey, 1200 Mile road trip, on the Saturday 2nd of July you can relax have a well deserved drink with the rest of the Screwballers and tell each other all the stories from the first ever top to bottom Screwball Rally.

And not to forget you will also have Max power live show to go to.

CHARITY

Charity 1- Child advocacy international- helps kids in poorer countries get medical help, education etc.
