With the 2013 Gumball Rally set to kick off this weekend, this is the perfect timing for the organizers to released the official trailer for this year’s edition. The clip is called “Spirit of the Gumball”, borrowing its name from a trophy given each year to the most courageous team.
The story comes from last year’s Gumball, following the adventure of Charles Morgan and his wife Keira. If the man’s name rings any bell, you are correct - we are talking about the Grandson of HFS Morgan, the founder of the Morgan Motor Company.
In order to prove that the carmaker’s new 3-Wheeler has what it takes to stand up there with the big names in the industry, Charles decided to eat the 3000 miles of last year’s Gumball in the little car.
We don’t know exactly how he managed to persuade Keira to follow him, but she did. After miles and miles in the small and elements-exposed cabin, Keira suffered from sun stroke and exhaustion, but they kept on driving.
Eventually, the Morgans crossed the finish in Los Angeles, hoping to get their hand on the Spirit of the Gumball accolade.
