On May 27, he’ll return to Gumball as ‘Team Meowclaren,’ taking two cars – the Ace of Spades (McLaren P1) and Queen of Hearts (McLaren 650S). This time, Belleci will be splitting shotgun duty with legendary drummer, producer and friend Tommy Lee for the U.S. leg, making stops from Reno to San Francisco to Los Angeles to Las Vegas. The run will wrap with a massive party on Friday, May 29 at the MGM Village where deadmau5 will perform an “unhooked” set. deadmau5’s participation in the rally will benefit the Gumball 3000 Foundation (https://www.gumball3000.com/foundation).
