I agree the brake and tail lights look awesome . What a great way to make it street legal without changing the overall look of the car

Has anyone been paying attention to this fiasco that they've been calling the tumbler traveling down the gumball 3000 this things broke down so many times it's not even funny team Galag,the ones you bought this thing are really unhappy with The workmanship of the Parker Brothers. They have made the tumbler look bad. The one thing I don't understand is how come they didn't get the original builders like Andy Smith to actually produce another one for them so they could race it instead of using the Parker Brothers. I've never been impressed with the Parker Brothers and this just goes to show the reason why.

Looks like you can see all of the day by day updates on their facebooks page (theres a link from their website).  I didn't see anywhere on there where they had problems other then it looked liked they had some kind of leak in the roof...

I saw the same thing, the post said that the roof leaked a little but the car ran just fine. This car was built in four weeks and was raced before it was completed and won the Gumball rally running against a list of super cars that run in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. I think this is a testament to their builds...

The Tumbler is being returned to the shop to be compleated.

I subscribed to the YouTube channel team galag and they showed a lot of videos where they were having issues with the car. They also I didn't make it to several cities because it kept breaking down and at one point the battery went dead and it took him several hours to get it fixed . It showed them being towed also . For a car over a million dollars that should have not had leaks or electrical issues. I think the Parker brothers rushed it and made America look like poor craftsman. I think the idea was great. Just poor execution. Don't get me wrong I wanted it to be the most bad ass car that was on the road. But watching the videos you could see that team galag was really disappointed
