On August 24th ,the East Coast Modball Rally will kick off in New York City with a Tunnel Run  that starts at the Roosevelt Hotel and continues through Midtown, Brooklyn, Holland and Park Avenue. Registration begins at 2PM at the Roosevelt Hotel and the run will begin at 8PM. This event  is not exclusively for cars that are participating in the Modball Rally that travels down the East Coast, but open to all modified cars in the New York City area. After the tunnel run, all teams are welcome to the Mad 46 Rooftop Lounge to celebrate the start of the Modball Rally. 

Not sure what the Modball Rally even is?  It is described by one of its sponsors as “the most bonkers road trip around”. Teams from around the country assemble each year for a road rally that spans across many state borders. The term “modball” is given because it is said to be a modified ‘Gumball Rally’. The Modball Rally is known less for its actual race and more for the partying that ensues later each night. This years rally takes place from August 25th-29th and stops in  New York, Washington D.C., Virginia Beach, Atlanta, Orlando and finally Miami.
