Thunderball should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
2004 British Cannonball Run

This has got to be the event of the year. Does anyone remember the film? What a blast.

There selling it as... 1200 miles over 3 day taking in England Scotland and Wales.. How good does that sound....

I’ve just signed up, number 07 on the line up, I've managed to interest a few mates. I think there waiting until the event is officially launched before entering, big mistake me thinks. I can see places getting snapped up quick and I think they’ll end up kicking themselves on event day.

Anybody else enter yet? or for that matter anyone intrested in signing up? this is going to the event of the year...

Check the line-up on the 2004 event link @ www.britballrun.co.uk

Bring it on baby……

Judging by the previous ones, then it'll be a lot of fun.

What car are you doing it in?

Please don't laugh when I tell you, we’ve entered in a VW Golf TDi, probably the worst spec car on the Britballrun line-up but were hoping the 600 miles to the tank will give us an advantage, less fuel stops equals less time and more points.

Hmm, im tempted to enter my MK3 supra. Only thing is I dont think it would stand a hope in hells chance of being anywhere near the front at the finish. There are some SERIOUSLY fast cars on that list now. Still I might enter, providing I can get a couple of friends to co piolet the car..

Nothing wrong with a diesel buddy

I have just come back from this years Gumball 3000.
(Paris,Madrid,Marbella,Gibralter,Tangier,Cassablanca,Marakech,Fez,
Nador,Almeria,Barcelona,Cannes. 3400 miles)

In a 330d BMW between 400/500 miles to a tank we came in second place on four stages and second over all.

Check out the video's on my new web page

Cheers

2005 Britballrun went ahead, it was a absolute blast

We came last in a Fiesta, this was partly to do with us missing a couple of key control points

A couple of Americans and a Guy from the UK won in a 4X4 shipped over from the states.

There is a new website with a 4 min trailer of the 2005 event. www.britballrun.co.uk

Anyone interested in 2006?
