Thanks for the offer TarmacTerrorist but my buddy is going to help with the driving ... just not sure where I am going to find the energy to complete this!! Might have to go watch some Cannonball runs to get some tips [img]images/graemlins/jump.gif[/img]

Check out this website on it, I really still can't believe I was asked to go ... just fantastic!! [img]images/graemlins/s4addict.gif[/img]

Cannonball is £3k per car (£1500 per person) and includes everything except beer and fines [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

This year the event is a bit flasher (ending up in Majorca is the rumour) and I'm defo signed up.

The DVD pre-sales are going so well and they've sold the TV documentary to 8 TV channels so sponsorship will be easier to obtain.

Best driving holiday you'll ever get.
