The KITT that he will be driving is a KITT that has been sitting in his Viennan friends Garage for 17 years. I can't tell if it's a screen used car, though we have been told it took $30k to repair.80's superstar and king of the internet David Hasselhoff has confirmed that he will be taking part in the 10th year Gumball 3000 anniversary. He has also decided to bring along his old friend KITT, the original car from the classic television series, Knight Rider. That's right! The Hoff will be giving his old motor a varnish and taking it back to the road. However, he will not be on the pursuit of crime this time around, he will be kick starting an adventure full of grease, guts and glamour.
