There are many types of automotive races but none have the reputation that the Cannonball Run has earned it its 25 years of glory. Some only know it from the movies (Cannonball 1/2/3) but it actually started out as the first transcontinental “illegal” race.
In 2008 I had the opportunity to partake in the 25th anniversary Cannonball Run, which now has “One Lap of America” added to its name due to the movie studio’s purchasing the rights to the use of the “Cannonball Run” name.
This is from my very first blog that I created many years ago and is the first time I blogged about the smart car. I recycle the post here as who would have known that this one move to buy a new vehicle would turn into so much.
I have created a centralized location for all the photos from the stories within the Cars section. This public photo album also contains photos from yet to be released stories and has extra photos from the current stories.
There will be a lot of photos from my smart, but also from my first tuner shop in Canada and the neon’s that I used to race. I will also add in photos from the Cannonball Run in 2008 and other photos which belong in this automotive section. If you have photos of my cars or events which I was at, please let me know and I will add them in here.
