EURON8 Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 So keen, if i can afford it that soon after new years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Interesting. Initially mistook it for a Gumball type event due to the similar name. This will maybe appeal to a different breed of "Baller" though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Don't mean to be a "negative sally", but isn't that really just a day trip from Auckland to Rotorua and back? What I'd think a "cannon ball" style run would be would be a decent length of miles, north to south etc? With lush stops in between? Just seems a bit pointless is all.

JasonK Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I agree. would be lush to do it north to south n pick/ isnt that mega cruise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 they were going to do auckland to wellington, stay overnight then back up to auckland but the owners of the more expensive cars didn't want to leave them overnight somewhere. but yeah from one end of the country to the other would have been lush.

Ned Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 This will be cool too with cool stops on the way with epic challenges etc. Wish i could go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 if you wanna do from top to bottom there is the devils run cost $4000 to enter. I don't have $4000 spare. But for $65 and some petrol you get to cruise with up to 100 cars from auckland to rotorua have a lunch and head back and get the chance to win some mean prizes. so the big option is there just heading for a different market.

KKtrips Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 So what does the $65 get you? Discounted Fuel - Discounted Accomodation - an Afterparty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gator Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 The inventory for the trip lunch in rotorua access to the prize giving/after party and a chance at some pretty cool prizes. $65 for up to four people to have a cool day out (plus fuel) is good bang for buck as far as i'm concerned.

Snoozin Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Sounds like a wicked event, essentially a jazzed up traditional version of a rally. Days out with likeminded folk are always full of win. All the best for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
