European Cannonball run
Posted: 01 Jan 2004 13:43
Anybody know something about this run taken place in Europe the last couple of years?
It's some sort of a long distance race (say like 1500-2000miles) from one place in europe to another for the rich people I believe. I read somewhere it takes a couple of grants to participate so most cars running this 'race' are mostly like ferrari's / porsches / lambo's / amg's and so on. Running sometimes over 250kph getting 'tickets' everywhere from polices, especially in the more poor countrys with corrupted policemen etc.
Not a real race as they're all racing at day and partying together at night. Just saw some material about it on television (Ab Moteurs) but as I don't understand French I just have to guess what they say.
Anyway, was wondering if anybody know's something about this.
