    Quoted from Brian at Detailwerkz master Gloss-It Detailer:
    http://www.glossitonline.com/newrepl...streply&t=4075

    "So I was sitting around yesterday the 5th when I get a call from a old client with a porsche GT2. He told me that he was about 6 hours from Dallas racing..umm rallying in the Gumball 3000. They just got out of jail for getting clocked in the Bugatti Veyron at 178mph the night before, spending about 8 hours in jail till a hefty donation to a city charity released themselves and the veyron to continue on the race.

    He asked if we could meet him up at the W a luxury hotel where the Gumball would come in for a night of parting like only the rich know how to do. I said sure I would bring both of my rigs and my crew and get to town. He also told me that he cleared it with Maximilian Cooper to let me setup in the Gumball village where everyone parks and chills to try to get some more detail business. I was pumped and jumped at the chance. So here are the cars that Detail Werkz had the pleasure to detail. It was a LONG night..but I was FIRE UP all night long!"

    I didn't see any SRT 8s listed on the participant list but there is a Mustang GT. I would think with the mods done to some of the cars on this forum they would have a very respectable showing with this group... JMO

    wow, not too often you get to see those cars in person... let alone all at the same time.

    one question though, are these privately owned cars? if so, are you telling me they just ruined some of the rarest and most expensive cars in the world by plastering them with all that advertising?
