    I did a "not cannonball" road trip from the Red Ball to the Portofino, over 7 days, on Harley, at or below the speed limit, stopping to do the touristy crap, eating anywhere that wasn't a national chain, and I loved it.

      Its a crazy story, but in the 2904 and C2C combined race in 2017, a team raced a volvo wagon, fully dressed as a hearse, with the ashes of a friend in the back. Its a story that really needs a full vinwiki spot

  • @a7i20ci7y

    Cannon Ball needs to become "join the club" instead of "beat the record" or eventually safety is going to go out the window.

    • @AnarchistMetalhead
      @AnarchistMetalhead Před 3 lety +2

      there are cannonball related rallies, allowing to safely and comfortably travel the route
      races and record runs are about the speed, and unless restricted by factors similar to 2904 the speed will increase

    • @kingcountrytowing
      @kingcountrytowing Před 3 lety +2

      I fully agree, and the C2C is all about that, rather than record breaking. The desire to drive a car non stop coast to coast is what unites us all, very few are have the capabilities and the budget to attempt break records safely. We had wayyyyyyyy more fun trying to get our $3000 cars across the country in under 40 hours than most people have running records. Most record breakers say the same thing.

    Notoriously awful car to be around, what a record!
    (I set a record for myself in my M3, in the end of March from the Ohio side of PA to NJ in the early AM hours, averaging 110mph but my main setback was fog, some parts I had to slow down to as slow at 40mph. Appalachians were foggy. I think that's the closest Ill get to attempting a Cannonball)

    There is a typo in N23 the formula reads =I23/((G23-M23)*24) but should be
    =I23/((E23-M23)*24)
    The MPG for K5 is about 12 according to one of the video's I can try and find which if its absolutely crucial

    Number 66 on that list is Joseph Herman, it says record with deceased passenger. Can anyone explain?

    what does w/Deceased Passenger
    mean? Did the passenger die during the run or did the driver had to rush a dead from body from one cost to the funeral on the other coast?

    i got one crazy car story about car i owned. it was 2007 Bmw 545i. car was listed as run and drive with no check engine light and it was cosmetically great. it had great interior and paint as well.it looked like it barely even had 50000 miles. So i test drive it and bought it. as i was driving home check engine light comes on. car starts shaking aggressively because all 8 cylinders were misfiring. also car needed tire alignment so steering wheel was at 45° angle while driving straight. i went few more miles driver and passenger both airbag turns off and car was basically rolling death trap.... lemme know if u wanna know more about it😅 its kinda long story
