Supra Cannonball Run?????

[LilMissMkIII]

If you can get this happening (which i really hope you do), i will be there for at least a section of it... Would need to bum a lift with some of you though, as i can't afford to bring my car over

Sounds like a good plan would be interesting to see I'm in if this gets rolling
stop over in Canada ;-)
it's cold here eh won't have to worry about overheating as much HAHA

 

[bmoss85]

would be cool to do a stop at silv. i like that idea.

 

[BlackMKIII]

How about the "Brian O'Conner" special? LA to Miami, and stop at SILV?

 

[LilMissMkIII]

Who would be willing to put their hands up to organise it? (I'm pretty sure that the more "official" it gets, there will insurance stuff to deal with also which will be expensive and time consuming...)

If you put enough time into it, you could get sponsors, and raise money for charity...

The trip could also be in memory of some of our members who have passed on...

Just join the American version of the Cannonball run. For $10,000 (2008 fee is $20,000) :aigo: , you could enter the rally that goes to SoCal that has four starting points: Atlanta, Miami, New York and Washington DC. Prize money is at least $100,000. More money for your Supra!

Don't be jealous, its cause you live in aussieland isn't it and no one included you in their crazy thoughts.

It would be cool to do the Real Cannonball Run but the problem with that is $$$$$$$$ to register. This is very possible to do, Id look into getting it going but have no idea were to start, I think instead of having one of us organize it we get a group. It would be great If we could get sponsors and have some kind of reward for the winner.

You're welcome to ride with me:icon_bigg haha.

I was thinking from Main to Cal.

I agree. Start rate here in Portland. O'ya its MAINE not MAIN.:icon_razz

Maine's boring, and the roads suck.

The state just fixed most of the fun roads and the highway is mostly long straights out of the state. + Portland is less then an hour into the state!!

 

[MassSupra89]

You're right, I'd be cruising up there in my old car for 10 miles and realize I was going 110 and just staring ahead... but that's half the problem, you go 10 miles and see the same crap!

Most of your long highways are better than our roads though, I've been dealing with the clunk of my swaybar links on my DD every time I go 20 feet.

This would be a lot of fun! I don't know the first thing about organizing a rally across the US...otherwise I would be willing to help.

Jeez miss, you know you can ride with me! :icon_razz

 

[LilMissMkIII]

If this thing happens, i think i would have to be a car slut and ride with a few of you

I agree that you would need a group/committee to plan it... Just remember that you have ALOT to consider and decide on...

First place to start is with a rough idea of where, and how long this will take, then do a cost analysis and look at the viability of it as an "official" event... If it seems like it is possible, you will need to approach sponsors...

Now i know I'm on the other side of the world, but I'm happy to help with research and analysis

This would be interesting to see this work.
