Nobody?!? I always "heard" of at least 6 or 7 car which want to ship over...
So who will come to the eurofinales?
You know, last years, some of you weren't there (Tapani, Jussi& Teija, dB Warriors, Team RWD, etc..) and this year, they will be nearly at the same place (150 km away from the last year's location).

Looking forward to meet you there!

UK reps have never been that active keeping contact with rest of us, but through Geoff / Firestarter you should get what you need. At least he has been there to help in the past and knows what goes on in UK.

If you guys(Team Loud)don't go to the world finals in the US,the optimism about your scores will go thru the roof!

if finals is done from several locations, can we stay in california? i don't think its all that fair if they don't have to bring their vehicles, but we do... world finals is in tennessee, european finals is in europe, really we need to remember that.

Why couldn´t the world finals be held in Europe or elsewhere then? Or is Europe not part of the world as Tennessee is?
Many European people have just as far to drive to any European finals as it is for you to drive to Nashville. And not to mention that some might need to take very expensive and time consuming ferries and bridges/tunnels. Plus that we pay 3 times as much for gas over here

is anyone in europe traveling 2039 miles? hell the people in mexico have no problem showing up to finals. i do understand it sux to be in your position because of where you live, but dbdrag world finals is in tennessee. oki has no problem showing up.

it is less than 2000 miles from kiruna sweden to i think where the sign of music 3x switzerland show is, not really sure if that is all your finals or not, but kiruna is at the tip of sweden, closest extreme distance i could find.

Hehe, that's no bad point, because Europe isn't that large, but:
Anyone in America ever paid 5 $ per Gallon?!?
WE DO!
quote:oki has no problem showing up.
Are you really sure about that? It's a HARD, VERY EXPENSIVE (10000$) and problematic way to go there and I'd be sure, most American's wouldn't to the same traveling as Oki did if the world finals would be held out of the states.
So please don't tell us europeans lazy or something like this, and please understand, that we only wanted to have a "chance" to get world champion, if we're the loudest. (Okayokay, the loudest are not we, but the finns, but I meant all loud guys from any country).
This is no offense! ...and if the 2004 World Finals really will be held in more than one location, there will be a real possibility for THE LOUDEST TO BE WORLD CHAMPION, no matter where they're from!

Sure maybe the drive is a little shorter than from california to nashville but I bet most americans don't need to spend 12-15 hours on a boat as the finns do... Just saying that it would be fair if we could get a world finals with one location in Europe and one in the US like Matze said.

i just don't see the "fairness." i know it is difficult for you to come up with the money and time to come over here with your vehicles. but dbdrag is a traditional US thing, maybe we should next have the superbowl in russia? our sport, home field advantage.
