2014: The Crew @ Games14 - Event Activation
16th September, 2014
With the growing popularity of the group amongst the local scene, Gumball7™ turned a new leaf in its book; we went commercial! For the recent gaming convention, and might we add the biggest one here, held at DWTC, Gumball7™ was recruited to promote the fast paced action racing game, The Crew. Over a period of 3 days, 35 cars, ranging from Muscles, Tuners, Exotics & Classics were displayed at the DWTC right outside the entrance of the convention. The idea was to create a scene from the game where the cars were replicated to the real world.
A big shoutout to our main man Abhishek Shroff for connecting us with this gig and helping us flawlessly plan and execute the same; also to all the members who came through for the three day period to help us out and display their monsters at the venue, a huge Thank you!

2014: Chapter III - Gumball7™ Turns 2 !!!!
05th September, 2014
#Gumball7 turned 2 this September and we celebrated this monumental occasion by doing a repeat of our most fun drive yet!. We drove towards one of the coolest peaks in the UAE along one of the best driving roads in the UAE - Jebal Jais!
The drive to the peak in general is one that every driver in the UAE should take and thanks to MME, we got informed of the place last year. This time around we were a strong convoy of 36 well mixed car brands ranging from American Muscles to Jap & German Tuners; a strong group of 50 people in total.
With celebrations in mind and a festive mood all around, we held raffle draws for our members and gave away a few good prizes, amongst which were ENOC Petrol cards & Salik Recharges. To add to the good vibes going on, we also delivered the prizes to our Member of the Months from April till August.
A big shoutout to Sagar, Subodh, Rahul, Vidyut & Avinash for the great event coverage!
