Gumball 3000 entrants near finish, arrive at Palm Beach Int. Raceway
Gumball 3000 entrants at Palm Beach Int. Raceway – Click above for high-res image gallery
The Gumballers who began in Los Angeles earlier this week have made it to the near end of their cross country journey in Florida, though not without some snafus along the way. Autoblog friend and freelance auto journalist Myles Kornblatt was on hand to capture the cars in all their bug-encrusted glory as they made their way from Orlando to Palm Beach Int. Raceway for one of the few track stops on the rally. After this they'll be headed for Miami and the finish line, after which we expect a finishing party to take place that would make Bacchus blush. Check out the high-res gallery below courtesy of Myles, which include action shots of the entrants on-track.

I like how she's carrying a camera in an effort to pretend she is not just there to fellate some rich guy. And yes, I am jealous. Of the guy, not her.

There will be a larger amount of loose women at the finishing event I assume.

I was wondering, what is the deal with the hideous paint/graphic schemes on these exotic cars???

Probably sponsorship decals and douchebag "tuning"
Its interesting though, here it looks so odd and out of place. Yet if you look at pictures 4 or 5, you'd think you were looking at a parking lot in a Dubai shopping center.

Its like a real-life "Redline", only more trashy. "Carlo!"

Here's a tip bugatti, when building a super car make sure its good looking!
I can't imagine there is one kid any where in the world with a poster of that crap box on his wall.
I don't care how fast the thing is, its fugly. It looks like a prius and some kind of beetle got together and had some mutant X Men baby.
If that's not bad enough some clown decides what it really needed was stickers and a gold body?
BAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

As much as I am a gearhead, this is nothing but a toolbag parade.

Gumball didn't have very good update thing happening over at their official site. I guess that's what happens when you rally in the US and thus keep updates slow or vague to keep law enforcement guessing. "Official" blogs don't count, Max.
All of that said probably explains why Autoblog updates have been slow or simply a lacking. I saw nothing in the way of info when and where I could see them arriving in Dallas anywhere on the interweb and hoped Autoblog would shed some light. Not a-blog's fault, I just had my hopes up, that's all.
