  Cannonball Run Events, Road Rally, Europe
Well the Cannonball Run 2006 has been underway for 24 hours now and almost 1000 miles from the start in Surrey, our intrepid Cannonballers are on the beach here in sunny Rimini recovering from their fantastic drive down.
And the hot news is that the Cannonball Run leader after this stage is none other than Jonathan and Tim in the Volvo V70R (of all cars!).
Cannonballers took several routes to cover the 230 or so miles, some straight across, some down the coast from Rimini then over to the west, and others went close to Firenze then down.

 Cannonball Run 2 review (1984) - Qwipster's Movie Reviews
Granted, the original Cannonball Run isn't exactly a critical masterpiece, but for what it is, it does work well.
Normally, sequels take what was successful from the first film and give you much more, but Cannonball Run II mystifyingly strips away all of the good stuff, then injects some of the dumbest, most unfunny, and completely unnecessary side plots to fill up most of the running time.
The first problem with Cannonball Run II lies in the fact that Brock Yates, writer of the first film and one of the creators of the actual race, is out as screenwriter.

 35 Years Ago, the Original Cannonball Run Took the Green Flag
The third run was in late April 1975, won by a Ferrari Dino that beat the record set by Yates and Gurney by one minute.
When the Cannonball Run movie came out, the rail-thin Stropus was replaced by the so-buxom Adrienne Barbeau, the three-woman team was now two women, and the Cadillac limo was a Lamborghini, but "a little editorial license never hurt anyone," Stropus recalls now.
Generally they are invite only and are run similar to the original one on public roads with parties etc. One Lap is similar but you race at tracks rather than the public roads.

After the immense success of the first Cannonball Run, the whole gang got back together for this mega-bomb of a sequel that proves that the second time isn't necessarily a charm for Burt Reynolds and company.
If a film were to be judged by pure star power, then Cannonball Run II would win the comedy race of 1984 hands down.
Still, there's little doubt that Cannonball Run II is better left in warm memories to its multitude of early cable constituents, whose repeated viewings on the tube gave this lousy film its biggest audience.

  Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Cannonball Run 2 at Epinions.com
The original "Cannonball Run" was made during a period I like to call "Burt-Madness," that is, when thousands of our nation's ladies were swooning over the ultimate cool that is Burt Reynolds circa "Smokey and the Bandit".
"Cannonball Run 2" doesn't have those immediate strengths, it was made in the early eighties, when innumerable teen idols had (unjustly) eclipsed Burt's popularity.
Basically serving as a repository for all the jokes not used in the original, "Cannonball Run 2" follows the same course as its predecessor, although considerably more time is given to plot development.

 Montykins: Recent Reading
Brock Yates is the creator of "The Cannonball Sea-to-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash", a crazed New York-to-Los Angeles road race that was described in the movies Gumball Rally, Death Race 2000, Cannonball Run, Cannonball Run 2, and Speed Zone.
Yates invented the Cannonball in 1971, and it was run as a race four more times before the last one in 1979.
Yates acknowledges this when he shuts down the Cannonball, deciding that there won't be any more New York-to-Los Angeles runs when he starts meeting civilians with Lamorghini Countaches who think it's going to be a piece of cake to crank 'er up to 180 mph and hit icy bridges.

Cannonball Run II was a film that depicted the wacky antics of Cannonballers: speed demons that partake in a no holds barred, coast-to-coast race.

I have always liked this movie, however, if it is on TV it is with a station that has commercials so I decided to buy it.

How you enjoy yorself is your business and idea, if you are the type of person who does not walk on the cracks in the sidewalk.....or are frightened about a speeding ticket.........best to stay at home.
I have done a couple of these runs in Europe and can say its a mindblowing experience if you are into cars.
I have never smoked or done drugs and generally do not spend big money on most things in life, but now at over 50, with no wife or kids, a Cannonball is within reach on a yearly basis.
