Siberian,
That comment was not directed at you personally.
I saw the gumballers a couple of years ago when they stopped near by. The cars were truly awesome (as were some of the drivers), and I thought the Gumball was really cool - it sounded like fun, both the driving and the evening events.
However, seeing the "documentary" titled Mischief 3000 completely changed my mind. If you think passing a tractor trailer on the right side shoulder at 120 mph is really cool, this is definitely your cup of tea. Stupidly endangering innocent lives (including children and puppy dogs) is not something I aspire to. The vast majority of the people involved lacked skills and drove like complete and total idiots.
If you saw Mischief 3000 and thought "Cool!" then yes, I absolutely I think you are an idiot too. If you think Cannonball! (the book) was a good read, then I might agree with you. Of course, the focus of that book was traversing the country at a high rate of speed safely... there was an ideal that was completely broken by the "Gumball" crowd.
