No idea, I read many different rumours circling around about that guy. Some people said he was in jail, other people claimed that he was dead or bankrupt. Well he definitely isn't dead nor out of money because he is talking to buy the brand new Mercedes CLS. I read his interest in the new Benz on his website recently, After I had checked the Gumball section out (here is a link to the board
http://www.ultimaterally.com/board/). He is busy trying to organise his own Gumball Rallye, only difference is that this will be a race and not a rallye (on public roads :shock: ) And most of you will know the now already legendary quote by a guy who calls himself "lonman" (British lad) who said "It's not a race it's a rallye" minutes before he had been driving with the accelerator welded to the floor.
He has a preference for the Porka GT2, just watch at the Gumball rallye-The movie for that. He is the guy in grey GT2. Here a picture of him

And here is a wallpaper of the über Benz

I think that lots of people focus themselves too much on guys like this, I have my doubts that they have the 'Gumball-spirit'. If we take the movie for example, on a certain point they are interviewing a father with his son, they both drive a Ferrari. The thing the old man says is very smart, I share his mentality, bit more common sense than other participants. Anyway, that is my opinion around that matter.
Take care
