[@jaymib3202]

RIP Burt Reynolds, loved your 70s and 80s movies when growning up in the 90s and will always go back to them. Will rewatch Smokey and cannonball in honour of you. You was the men.

The MOTHER of all Roadmovies..... AWSOME..... a Classic

[@tomcody2203]

„Car 42, you've been in pursuit for two hours. Another five minutes, and you'll be in Arizona.“ „Yeah, and we're gonna stay in pursuit until we catch him.“ „It didn't take us that long to catch Dillinger!“

[@spreadthelove77]

Matt Damon himself said that if movies were judged by quality on how funny they are, Cannonball Run 2 would be the greatest film ever made 😀👍🏼👍🏼

[@tumppu1975]

Matt has a taste to equal mine.

[@AlexOjideagu2]

One is better but two is good

[@chefinavan1]

This is Before political correctness and health and safety ruined everything.

[@TEGRULZ]

Get your frigging high visibility vest on then, before Health and Safety come do a lecture. Just don't show em the black Lambo you wanna wear it in.

[@kuebby]

This is actually the period of the worst car-based PC and H&S issues--the 55MPH federal speed limit plus automakers hadn't figured out to make cars safe/non-polluting and still powerful.

[@HerecomestheCalavera]

I miss when TV and movies we just a fast bad ass car cops chasing them. Cops wrecking there cars. Crazy ramps which never damaged the car. Those were the days.

[@robbieadams8436]

I fucking love this track.

[@irishman6124]

Best car enthusiastic film ever made with fantastic music .if your ever having a bad day go for a drive with this music up to the full and you will recover fast

[@chefsean31]

i play this song on road trips drives my wife crazy

[@chefinavan1]

chefsean31 I have a wife like that too..... This song is on my car tunes list, I also have the version with the lamborghini engine noise and I drive in time with the sounds :D

[@VONMEEK]

chefinavan1 where do you get the song? I’ve looked everywhere

[@longrifle.]

I don't want to talk about ..."Him..."

[@PetarVN]

yeah right... Good story and you have an awesome life if you actually did that! On my trip to Germany one of my friends took me for a run in his M3 (the E36 gen or 2nd gen one) down a section of autobahn some 15-ish miles south of Berlin. We hit 155 MPH (Limiter) And avraged some 140 over some 20-ish miles

[@TheDaveallchurch]

RIP Burt....absolute legend and always will be

[@ignoranceandwant]

1980 Lamborghini Countach LP 400 S

[@leighnassau]

Thanks Ricky , that was going to be my question lol. What Lambo was this . hey, any idea what engine was "under the hood" ?

[@Tommyblueeyes]

3.9L V12.

[@ant1georgiou]

leigh nassau - but that's not the engine you hear dubbed onto the soundtrack.

[@charlenemarcks7483]

Ricky Coogin Twin wing

[@cardinalscottc]

Ricky Coogin it belonged to a doctor that was friends with a producer of the movie at time. The front wing of the car had to be added to make the car legal in California. The car was later bought and restored by the owner of Hawaiian topics tanning lotion.

[@superstardust1969]

(Captian Chaos) DA DA DA!!!!

[@tobiaslang6263]

Legends never die, Rip Burt (Gator)one of my alltime Heroes

[@goochdawg]

a badd ass ride!!!! n the hot chick n it! omg lol

[@sexyones09]

I play this song everytime I'm driving a really fast car in GTA San Andreas on my XBox!

[@manga12]

the muddy river run is a car show in the area but cars come en mass from all over , like a tour such as what they do with the luxury cars in the states ride lined up parade style and go across the nation with stops in several citys.

[@jenfirelioness]

Just watched the movie finally, and I rarely laugh watching comedies. Well, I LMAOed and couldn't stop. The cast was fun, and the cars too were awesome. I can't decide if I like the ambulance or the Countach more. Add a computerized Subaru and Jackie Chan, 2 "priests" in a 308, a Bond actor in a classical Aston, and stereotypical Southern entrants into the Cannonball Run, and one will expect wonderful chaos. (I forgot the creepy doctor and the anti-car activists trying to stop cars.) Oh, and 18 or so people must be the Friends of Nature people.

[@chriswinter5765]

+Jen Dowdy It may interest you Jen to know that the movie was based on an actual event. Brock Yates was the organizer of the illegal race in Real Life and he plays the part of the Organiser, and his wife is seen at the check in desk at the start of the race. (and was involved in directing the movie). The fake ambulance was actually a stunt that Brock and his wife REALLY DID in one of the REAL Cannonball runs. The conversation with the state trooper was based on an actual police pull up. If you want to know more, I highly recommend you read "Cannonball" by....you guessed it... Brock Yates.

[@jenfirelioness]

+Chris Winter That is amazing! I have to find it online and read it! I'm going to work on an F1 book first but will eventually get around to it. Thank you :)

[@chriswinter5765]

Jen Dowdy My pleasure. This movie has been a fave of mine since childhood but it was only 2008, when after reading a book called "The Driver" by Alex Roy that I learned that Cannonball was a REAL thing and that led me on a reading quest to find out more. (And I'm not a big reader haha). A documentary movie called "32 Hours 7 Minutes" by Cory Welles may also interest you. It can only be purchased directly from Cory herself but covers the "US Express" (the event that took over from Cannonball) as well as Alex Roy's attempt to break the record driving across the USA.

[@CJ_7519]

Yes it was based on a real life race for those that don't know!!!!! Nevertheless, this movie will ALWAYS be part of my childhood!!!!!

[@CJ_7519]

Kenneth, BOTH of them were funny as hell!!!!

[@byf43]

Have no fear, Chaos is here! Damm, damm DAAAAH....

[@TheVetoSkreeemer]

Rip Burt Reynolds, an icon, and an excellent actor.

[@nickthastick]

If I tell you boys something, you wouldn't think I've been drinking, but the white Lamborghini has vanished, but there is a red one, with a couple of great looking chicks in it!!!!

[@rwboa22]

nickthastick, from "Cannonball Run II" of which one of the "great looking chicks" is none other than the original Daisy Duke (Catherine Bach).

[@gabrielrios6711]

And Susan Anton too! What a combo.

[@hummerinator]

thanks for uploading this man!!! so much childhood memories!!!!!

[@analyticaltristan]

Before there was Fast and the Furious and all the other half-assed done racing movies, there was a time where endurance was truly tested....Cannonball Runs were a way to go then and still go on today!

[@reecenolan]

6 people got their ass kicked by captain chaos :P

[@chefinavan1]

"Dun dun daaaaaaa" but that's okay because I always wanted to be....... Captain USA

[@PetarVN]

I have watched ever fast & furious movie. all 5 of them cannot be compared to the sheer awesomeness of the cannonballers. Everything is right in this movie. The cars, the actors, the plot, the scenery, jacki chan fight scene the music, and the fact its still way better then the modern 18 trillon dollar budget racing movies

[@tonidmc]

Those were the days!!

[@cardinalscottc]

The lambo was owned by a doctor in California at time of filming. Later was owned by ceo of Hawaiian tropics tanning lotion. Later it was purchased by again and fully restored to its exact movie condition including the phone on the console.

[@longrifle.]

Intersting , thanks. Wonder what the movie car is worth today. Did they do anything special to the car for filming?

[@loricrockett-owens5117]

Dean Martin dressed up as the priest flirting with Adrienne, and she said keep flying father. Lol

[@jrident]

Best movie ever!

[@chefinavan1]

Jay Volner yes yes yes it is :D

[@daniellandl9980]

Fuck ya

[@durkjeferwerda1043]

Come on.................it`s die Hard.

[@sexyones09]

Texas ain't nowhere near as big and vast as I once thought it to be (I sped across it's width in a lamborguini in less than 8 hours doing 120 mph the whole time!) :)

[@DavidbarZeus1]

I dare you to try something similar in Alaska

[@mrhappymtguy]

@94pulse It's a late 1970's Lamborghini Countach w/a V-12 engine that will blow your goddammed doors off! LOL!! They used a red one in the sequel that was white in the beginning of the movie! Have you seen it??

[@TEGRULZ]

Does beg the question, why the hell is this not on iTunes or Amazon?

[@robertedwardlee8227]

cause itunes suck.

[@enzorari]

Loved this movie specially since the engine sound of the Lambo was dubbed by a Ferrari Daytona for the movie 👍😁

[@dustinstephenson7914]

I want to do a cannonball run.

[@TheFur77]

Before cannonball there was the best of all... "Gumball Rally". Still love Ray though.

[@averychristy5099]

such a different song considering most of Ray Steven's work, but he did it well.

[@robbieadams2672]

It's just a matter of Style!

[@jamiebilich9542]

Loved this movie growing up butt Reynolds dom delouise Sammy Davis jr Dean Martin farrah faucet. Terry bradshaw

[@JK-hu3jk]

exactly... One of the movies of my childhood. I´ll never forget ;-)

[@ginsunh]

This Lamborghini was actually bought new by one of the winners of the real Cannonball. He was going to race it in the Run, but Brock Yates never scheduled one after 1979. He sold the car to director Hal Needham who used it in this movie. One of the actresses driving the Lambo was Needham's real life girlfriend (not Adrian Barbeau).

[@cardinalscottc]

ginsunh not true. The lambo belonged to a doctor in California that was friends with a producer.

[@ローガンモケーマン73チャンネル]

Canonball!

[@005AGIMA]

And this is why I drive a honda to work, and the Porsche stays in the garage.

[@bearson2411]

Great song!!

[@jeffreyread5463]

Dang great song and movie. Loved them both

[@cannrickyf14]

This was the Lamborguini Countach LP-500 start fame and all generations

[@ScarfacScaramanga]

HAL NEEDHAM FILMS

[@timothyball742]

[@MrPounder12]

[@madhas1998]

This is better than the equivalent versions today, like fast and furious.

[@davidtrancoso8099]

Eastbound and Down/Jerry Reed. Sister Golden Hair/America.

[@PetarVN]

@kloppeder100 The Car Historian- This is a late model Lambourghini countach. It's the later model noticable by the spoiler on the back and the wheel arches also US models had to have thing on the front

[@evertbaauw7391]

Leuke film the Cannonball run

[@hornetmagtfVMFA314]

A great film.

[@acecrisp]

Always found it was amazing this was a Ray Stevens Song, when he mostly does comedy songs. But he did have some serious songs too

[@martinhernandez628]

Rip Burt Reynolds . Everytime I drive my Camaro on the freeway ill play this song in your honor.

[@Kartuk07]

Was it not an LP 500s? Could be wrong

[@jrag1000]

Hal Needham also did Mega Force and I think he had a Cameo in it.

[@nickthastick]

No shit!!! The song was also in Connonball 2 opening credits, no black lambo though.

[@chefinavan1]

nickthastick a white one that turns red :)

[@rwboa22]

chefinavan1, with a couple of great looking chicks.

[@SumoSushiHAI]

"You've been after them for the last 2 hours...another 10 minutes and you'll be in the next State. It didn't take us this long to catch -Dillinger-!"

[@jeffreyread5463]

Always wondered who made this song. Good to know. Great song.

[@Majorwinters69]

[@VF1Skullangel]

This was epic 30 years ago and by god its still epic today! The fast and the furious ain't got shit on this!

[@cutestuff6888]

How do you answer the challenging dare?

[@neogeon]

I can't get enough of this song. Can anyone that actually lived in the 70's suggest some similar songs that don't get proper airplay today?

[@peterreilly1370]

An absolute lad of the highest order!!..top boy and proper!!!!

[@kuebby]

The Cannonball record was actually broken during Lockdown 2020, though some people argue that record deserves an (*) because it was during special circumstances.

[@Tim_3100]

saw a wrapped 2019 cannonball run europe 720s promo car and thought of this song

[@horizonandsky8989]

Black Countach!!!!! Jill and Marcie!!!!

[@chriswinter5765]

The ONLY bit of Country and Western I'll ever like.

[@AlexOjideagu2]

This is only loosely country anyway, it's almost as much funk and disco.

[@michaelrussell3890]

And the Smokey and the Bandit theme

[@khalilpenn7470]

Omg They need to make movies like this in 2020 filmmakers sit back and observe the best movie I ever seen when I was a child fucking cannonball hell yeah

[@loricrockett-owens5117]

these movies cracked up!

[@SumoSushiHAI]

"You've been in pursuit for the last 2 hours...another five minutes you'll be in Arizona!"

[@TheNightrunner666]

@essexmanta its impossible to find that movie online. i have been told there was a gumball rally 2 with two old men driving an invisible jaguar or porsche....but i've searched and it says there has never been a sequel however these sites are missing most movies. it tok blockbuster a year to find the orginal gone in sixty seconds

[@McPh1741]

Has anyone seen the fan trailer for Cannon Ball 3? Search "Cannonball Run 2009" on youtube. I was leary about a remake of this movie ever being made (fearing it would be ruined like so many other remakes) but not after watching that guys fictional trailer set this song. Pretty cool.

[@1TB0T]

@manga12 No the organisers of "the great american run" are doing a "Cannonball Rat Race" in Australia in 2010. That's the one I'm signed up for. It's not a "real race" like the original Cannonballs organised by Brock Yates back in the 70's, but damn it's still gonna be fun.

[@duralate]

That lambo countach is the sexiest car int he world

[@martingillespie7453]

Yip widest tyres ever made, remember this BULL never had a turbo or supercharger, just a big V12

[@hetspeelkwartiertjeslaatte2624]

Sadly I don't have the skill level to even consider trying the Run. But GTA is a different story..

[@dredgethesoul]

Growing up..that Lamborghini and the women in it were my fantasy. God bless hot women in hot cars!

[@TruenoandLevin86]

god how great it would be to get a hopped up Muscle Car or Exotic Sports Car and drive across the country from New York to LA outrunning the cops.

[@manga12]

this is 2011 so is it like a tour of the nation with lots of high performance cars like the muddy river run?

You must be kidding, surely you are not talking about the race that goes from canada to the coast for that new supercar as the prize. Are you talking about that one.

[@WheelchairActual]

@Fetch26291 Not K.I.T.T. That car was one of the team's cars in the actual movie.
