Precious little information about this around. Anyone know what's happening in Pattaya? I hope that they have a better trip down than we did this morning. Very heavy traffic was a bit of a surprise.

Complaints and a potentially fatal accident dominate the Supercar Rally 2007.


The Supercar Rally 2007 which was organized by the Supercar Club of Thailand in association with Central World Shopping Center in Bangkok took place over the weekend, however it begun with a potentially fatal accident on an Expressway in Bang Pree, Bangkok where one of the luxury vehicles in the rally, a Lotus sport car caught fire and its driver narrowly escaped the inferno. Many of the drivers abandoned the rally at this point, leaving only 10 sports cars who continued on to Pattaya where the problems continued.

A group of scantily dressed Russian Women were due to take part in a photo-shoot in front of Pattaya City Hall at the conclusion of the rally. However, local residents called the Police after they were deemed to be disrespecting a portrait of His Majesty the King and the statue of King Thaksin the Great located in the grounds of Pattaya City Hall due to their provocative poses with the cars. They were forced to relocate to a more private area.

We are unsure if the Supercar Rally will take place next year due to the many problems encountered in this years event.

Where but Pattaya would a group of Russian whores be featured in a civic event?
