http://sexyradio.fm/Rallye-Gumball/ The 2010 event travelled between London and New York. The rally began in London on the first of May, taking in Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Boston, Quebec City, Toronto and Niagara Falls before finishing in New York.
On 20 April, professional skateboarder Tony Hawk announced on his Twitter page that he was entering the rally in the A-Team van, as used in the 2010 movie. Other celebrity participants included rapper Xzibit in a Porsche Cayenne and Eve in a Bentley Continental GT. Actor Idris Elba took part in an Aston Martin DB9. Michael Madsen quit the rally after he was stopped by the police for speeding [1].
On Saturday, May 1, before the start of 2010's Gumball Rally on Pall Mall, London, dancers and performers, organised by Talent Expo, gave a flashmob performance of Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal. The performers, choreographed by professional Choreographer for the BBC, Richard Marcel, and former Michael Jackson feature dancer Patrick Alan, came from among the crowd viewing the cars on static display, and performed an adaption of the iconic Smooth Criminal choreography, adapted from the routine made famous in Michael Jackson's 1988 film Moonwalker.

The Gumball 3000 is an annual 3,000 mile international road rally which takes place on public roads, with a different 3,000 mile route around the world each year. Founded in 1999 by Maximillion Cooper, it sees an annual entry of 120 cars, which are mostly exotic and powerful sports cars. However, more unusual entries, such as police cars and camper-vans, have been seen. The Rally is not a serious race in the traditional sense of Rally races - there are no prizes for being fastest or official timekeeping of any sort. Organizers emphasize that it is a road trip adventure and not a race.[1][2]
In 2008 the rally included a unique stopover in Pyongyang, the project having been initiated by the North Korean ambassador to Britain. Permission was initially granted to drive from South Korea through the fortified border, though in the end the stopover was without the cars.[3]
Due to its nature, the Gumball 3000 has received criticism. In a 2007 incident in Macedonia, two non-participants were killed and the remainder of the rally was subsequently cancelled.[4] Moreover, participants have been fined,[5] had their cars confiscated,[6] and been jailed for excessive speeding.
