KLM Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 so i'm guessing this gumbass is kinda like the american cannonball? Yes! This is the modern incarnation. Its always great to read write-ups from the event, because the stories that come out of these events are truly phenomenal. If I'm not mistaken, the famous motoring journalist Brock Yates pioneered this event and he has some great stories about dodging cops through multiple states etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkster Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 suprising that they dont do anything to stop the speeding before ti starts.. cos its like obvious isnt it? not every1 breaks d speed limit...a lot of ppl use the 'moderate speed-longer engine life' strategy...its more abt endurance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pericles Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 not every1 breaks d speed limit...a lot of ppl use the 'moderate speed-longer engine life' strategy...its more abt endurance Yeah, its a long distance thing. More rally type. There is nothing saying u need to speed. U can always follow the local speed laws There was an Ice Cream van last time Besides, its not all about coming first, there is other prizes too.

Overdrive Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Yup it started off as a rich mans thing but now alot of people participate, more like a rally where you get lost and find your way out/ quickest routes and crazy crazy parties at night..
