Modball

The first ever Modball Rally took place in June 2007 with over 150 cars at the O2 Arena starting grid. The route began in London and ventured through Amsterdam, Cologne, Prague, Vienna with a casino party, Milan with a live performance from the Fuel Girls before finishing with an awards party in Lyon. On day two of the rally the Modball made German Television and the front page of every German newspaper for being surrounded by 100 German Police cars during a car display at the Cologne Arena. Despite having permission to go through Germany three cars were caught speeding on the hard shoulder in Düsseldorf at over 150 mph (240 km/h) resulting in the chief of German Police classing the event as an illegal street race. The result left each Modball vehicle with a fine of €173 and a Police escort to Belgium taking over 10 hours. This however didn't stop the Modballers from making the next party in Prague as they drove their cars through the night. One vehicle, a Modified Honda Type R, escaped from the policy convoy on the Autobahn and drove straight to Prague without detection - arriving almost 12hrs before any of the entrants - and they were crowned the unofficial winners for that year. It was for this reason the award for 'Spirit of the Modball' went to every team on the rally.

The 2008 annual Modball Rally took place in June. The rally started in London and traveled through Geneva, Milan, Zagreb, Budapest before the awards parts in Prague, Czech Republic.

The 2009 event was a road trip adventure from London to Bratislava from June 11–17. The event also included a live performance from MTV's Dirty Sanchez at the London Launch Party.

This event received huge magazine and online video coverage including a DVD front cover of Max Power Magazine including unseen footage from the Fast and Furious movie.
