LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The world's largest luxury vehicle road rally visited Bardstown on Memorial Day.

The 2022 Gumball 3000 Supercar Rally passed through the city on Monday. It was held at the first and second blocks of North 3rd Street.

The 22nd annual rally raises money for the Gumball 3000 Foundation, which supports a variety of youth-based projects in low income communities. Some of the more than 100 cars featured were futuristic hypercars, custom classic cars and open-top buses.

"(If) you've ever seen the movie 'Gumball Rally' or 'Cannon Ball Run,' it's not too far from that," Lexington resident Joe Kaminkow, who participated in the rally, said. "We really don't go very fast at all and we're having a great time getting from point A to point B rather quickly."

Celebrities in attendance included actor David Hasselhoff, singer CeeLo Green and MLB Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr.

The rally travels from Toronto to Miami, with Bardstown selected as the stop between Indianapolis and Nashville. The cars drive around 3,000 miles in a week.
