Rapper Xzibit lost his license and was fined in Holland, while taking part in The Gumball 3000 Rally.

The Gumball 3000 is an annual 3000 mile international tour that occurs on public roads, typically in Europe.

The event, which is modeled after coast-to-coast competitions in the United States, includes stops at tourist attractions or in large urban centers.

Film, television, music, fashion, and modeling celebrities traditionally compete in the annual event.

Xzibit, who hosts MTV's hit automotive series Pimp My Ride, was among a group of rally participants who, according to reports, were pulled over on Sunday (Apr. 29) by Holland as the cars passed through the Netherlands.

Xzibit was one of seven drivers who had their licenses taken by the police. The rapper was reportedly driving 100 mph in a 60 mph speedzone.

After paying the fine, Xzibit's teammate Farid Nassar assumed driving duties for the rapper's Lamborghini Gallardo.

Over 70 drivers were cited for speeding as the procession sped through Germany.

The race is now in jeopardy, after a 67-year-old man was killed and his wife critically injured in a hit and run accident involving British drivers Nick Morley and Matthew McConville in Macedonia on May 3.

The pair were driving a Porsche at high speed when they struck a VW Golf.

Morley and McConville allegedly climbed out of the Porsche and into a BMW and attempted to leave the country.

Local police arrested the two men at the border.

"All of the sponsors, including adidas, who sponsored Xzibit, basically dropped out after that," the source said.

Busta Rhymes has been released on $7,500 bail, after being arraigned earlier in the day, according to officials.

Representatives for Rhymes said that the rapper was formally charged with misdemeanor DWI and Driving While Ability Impaired (DWAI), which is a violation, not a criminal offense.

"According to the complaint, he blew a .067 BAC at the station [and] .08 BAC is legally drunk in New York," Rhymes' attorney Scott Leemon said. "His license was not suspended and he was immediately released on an agreed upon bail of $7,500 cash."

The rapper is expected to appear in court again Tuesday May 8 to answer the DWI charges.

Rhymes, 34, will also begin trial stemming from another assault case from 2006.

He was arrested early today (May 3), after police stopped his Yukon Denali on 51st Street and 11th Avenue in Manhattan.

The officers charged that the tint on the SUV windows was too dark. The police also claimed they smelled alcohol on the rapper's breath and apprehended him.

He was booked at the 28th St. precinct in New York.

Rhymes, born Trevor Smith, was also arrested on Feb. 22 for driving in Manhattan for driving with a suspended license.

that doesn't mean everyone goes as fast as they want. The only time you can do that is really late at night or early early in the morning so their are no other cars on the road.

Don't matter what you hit at 200mph, your pretty much screwed.
