Default ASANTI Gumball 3000 Challenger Widebody

So they just finished the Gumball 3000 here in South Beach (MIAMI), FL over the weekend. My buddy has Asanti's Dodge Challenger Widebody for the next few weeks until they haul it back to Cali.

Anyhow, he brought it by tonite while I was working at the local theater. Thing is badass. Everyone and their mother was all over this car.

Specs are 24x15 in the rear, 12" lip. I believe it was a 425/25/24 rear tire, don't quote me on that tho. Rear was flared out 3" on both sides. Typically the logos and whatnot aren't always on there, but for the Gumball 3000, they stickered it up. Pretty badass ride IMHO.

Excuse the camera phone pics, I wasn't really prepared, lol.

Cool! How did your buddy get ahold of it? Does he work for Asanti? And who won the Gumball Rally?

his company is one of the largest Asanti distributors on the East Coast, so they just called him up and said to use the car for PR stuff for a few weeks.

Not sure who won the Gumball, I don't really follow it.
