Thank god those stickers come off easy! It's a Gumball 3000 thing, I've seen most entrants with them except for a 2 man team running the Gumball with a fake cop car.

So it's Friday night and we are all registered and the KITT car is waiting outside the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco and ready to go tomorrow.... It is going to be so cool. The Gumball Rally is amazing and you can see it all here...
From 11.00 PST, we will be broadcasting live from the start line as we get ready to go. So tune in her, scroll down to the Hoff TV player, kindly brought to you by Kyte, and watch it. Then as we race down to LA, I will be checking in with you guys... There is no other social network in the world which has ever done anything like this. This is a world and an internet first!!!!!

I am going to the location in L.A. tonight to see if I can get some photos there or possibly even meet David.
We'll see what develops.

Sue is also down there as well, and I believe Jaime said he might try and hit it too.

Greetings,
I'm extremely tired (please excuse any typos) so I have to keep this somewhat brief. David arrived in Hollywood in front of the
El Captian Theater in a
silver Audi and I had the pleasure along with my friend Danny (Cal Jedi Knight) of
Knights of the West Coast to hand David a white gift box (Danny handed him the box personally) with info for Saugus with some postcards, t -shirt, Support Glen badges, and so on. It is currently sitting inside the car he was driving on the passenger seat.
David was very quick to get out of the car and make his way to the
Rosevelt Hotel. I also had the pleasure of meeting up with Sue who worked quite hard to get into the center of the frenzy once David arrived and get the good people of KRO some great exclusive shots. Sue's the best at what she does with her camera!

for Sue!
I have a couple of my own shots and will post photos later, including a great shot of David and his partner behind the wheel. We literally got right next to his door. Talk about great timing!
KITT
did not make it to the show. I guess the law decided to keep him locked up which is a real shame. There were a lot of great luxury and high profile sports cars though, lots of mercedez? and ferrarris. David's entrance in the Audi was clearly the most anticipated moment of the show and he didn't disappoint. It was interesting because no one knew what car he was going to arrive in and he arrived around 10:40pm, way past the original 8-9 deadline.
David looked very tired and did not stop to take photos or sign autographs. He basically made his way as quickly to the hotel as possible. Given the amount of driving he had to endure, I don't blame him for just wanting to get to his room and relax. I have a good feeling our hard work to give him our gifts will pay off.
Well for now that's all I know at the moment. I'll post photos up later.

Good work Sue!
I guess KITT showed up after all. We left after David headed into the hotel, I mean at 11:30 at night we were just exhausted. Good looking out!

It appears that this is not a KITT used in the original series.
I suspect this is the KITT that David built for his "Knight Rocker" concert series (toured Europe in 1987).

I'm thinking you could be right, it was "Night Rocker" by the way, just wanted to point that out, I know you like things proper. Just buggin' ya man, welcome back.

Sue, Excellent job I must say, pics, video and everything is great! I wish I could have gone out to LA and seen it myself and try and meet DH!
BTW I heard DH talking about him coming into the series and reprising his role with the old KITT, nice one on that also SUE!!!

Good catch....
Just please don't admit you actually
listened to the song.
At least "Get in my Car" was
intentionally funny.
