Cannonball Run Europe is proud to launch the “Chasing the Cannonball” DVD - an hysterical 50 minute documentary featuring the most extreme road rally of them all.
If you loved the original Cannonball Run film starring Burt Reynolds, Roger Moore and Dean Martin then hold tight for the eagerly awaited DVD launch of ‘Chasing the Cannonball’.
With over 50 minutes of fast and furious fun, 'Chasing the Cannonball' draws on exclusive footage of the adrenalin soaked madness and excitement of Europe's craziest road rally, Cannonball Run Europe.
“…the camera crew have been arrested, cameras and passports confiscated and they've gone down to the police station.”
Filmed in Autumn 2003, ‘Chasing the Cannonball’, gives a hysterical insight into the exiting world of no-rules street rallying and the nutters that take part. The filmmakers experienced first hand the non-stop frenzy and excitement of more than just a driving adventure but a physical and mental challenge.
Featuring an impressive list of vehicles including a Porsche GT2 Turbo, Range Rover 4.4HSE (superchipped and with added Nitrous Oxide), Subaru Impreza 2.0l Turbo (driven by a porn-star skate punk) BMW M5 ...and much much more, ‘Chasing the Cannonball’ takes you on an unforgettable 213mph journey where the only rule is - there are no rules.
Along for the ride were dot com millionaires, trustafarians and a bunch of assorted lunatics each clocking up a staggering 3,000 miles across 5 countries in 5 days and with just 5 hours sleep ... to be precise
You’d be mad to join BUT mad not to join the characters who drummed up a million stories to tell whilst enduring insane motorway speeds tricky mountain passes and the foreign police.
Billed as the 'Drive of Your Life', Sometimes dark, sometimes funny, always barmy and very dangerous, ‘Chasing the Cannonball’ is an adventure not to be missed.
