The most eye-catching participant of the Gumball 3000, this must be ‘m.
However, you will be on the basis of the stealthy appearance would not expect this under the skin of a Lamborghini Gallardo. The thing is built up by Caresto and this toko has pulled all the stops to make something gaafs.
The suspension (double wishbones all round) is completely independent, on the front is the use of specially designed push rods. The V10 under the hood has remained unchanged, and therefore still good for a nice 560 hp, linked to a flappy paddle ‘gearbox.
The device is all together 2,5 metres wide and a specially designed tubular frame offers the necessary rigidity. The wheelbase amounts to € 3.4 m, and the wheels measure a bizarre 26-inch. For all the violence off the brakes, the Tumbler is equipped with stoppers from Brembo with as many as 8 pistons in front and six behind.
The body is made from carbon, with the help of moulds which, on the basis of CAD drawings are made. No simple chore, so. Inside the Tumbler, however, it is still quite nice place, with black leather, gold stitching, and translucent materials. That makes the whole thing a bit less claustrophobic.
Moreover, occupants will be pampered with an electronically operated roof, climate control, power steering, a fine sound system and other things that life a little bit easier. Caresto built earlier by the way all the Rebellion of Jon Olsson and, not to forget, the Audi RS6 DTM.
