Wednesday 7th April 2004
Organisers of the Cannonball Run Europe have confirmed tha tthe third Cannonball Run Europe will kick off on September 12th 2004 from London’s Docklands.
The event will bring together petrol heads from all across the UK from all walks of life. The event was inspired by the 1981 film of the same name and will see up to 100 cars travel over 3000 miles across seven countries in just six days. The final route will be kept a closely guarded secret and only at each checkpoint will the next destination be revealed to each unsuspecting Cannonballer.
Tim Porter, event organiser explained: “It’s not the vehicle but the navigational skill and spirit behind the wheel that counts. Cannonball Run Europe is anyone’s game, whether you drive a Fiat, Ferrari or Ford, you stand an equal chance of winning. The victorious team will take the coveted Cannonball Run Europe 2004 title, trophy and get free entry for next year's event in order to defend the crown .”
The start of Cannonball Run Europe 2004 will take place mid-morning on September 12th, when that chequered flag is dropped 100 vehicles will leave the Docklands for Calais.
Some of the vehicles to be joining the starting line include a Ferrari 360 Modena, Lamborghini, Mercedes SL350, Aston Martin DB7, numerous Porsche Turbos, a Caterham 7, Maserati Spyder, Dodge Viper, Nissan Skyline R34, BMW M3 CSL, Skoda Octavia and a Mini Cooper (with a Yamaha R1 engine).
The entry fee for Cannonball Run Europe 2004 is £2,995 for one car and two people and includes all sea crossings, hotel accommodation at each destination, breakfast and all evening meals, VIP entrance to party nights at some of Europe's coolest clubs and much much more.

Cannonball 2004
Kicking off in September

Cannonball Run Europe is a timed event and therefore classed as a rally not a race. The winner is the vehicle that completes the course closest to an average speed of 61 mph and not the first across the finishing line.

Why don't you have a look at this www.pr-photography-tour.org
Yes it's only
in this country, but it's for a very good cause, it's a good opportunity to earn brownie points while having a wicked laugh at the same time.
I'm running in this event and can't wait to meet some fellow minded enthusiasts, not some jumped up, arrogant little business exec who doesn't know his Alfa from his a$$ (I know not everybody is like this, but that's the image portrayed)
Come on,join me and the many others who are supporting a very worthwhile event, raise some money for charity and enjoy yourself while doing it
