1980 Red Ferrari 308 GTSi

1979 Red Ferrari 308 GTS
1983 Blue Monte Carlo SS
1983 White Daytona Firebird Trans Am
1983 Gold Porsche 944
1977 Red Datsun 240Z

I can't speak for the 83 Cannonball Run, but when Brock Yates (the owner of the Cannonball name) tamed it in 84 into The Cannonball One Lap of America I was in it. 8800 miles in 8 days with a one day layover in Redondo Beach.
We started North of New York City. The first set of instructions were:
Go to Boston, turn left.
Go to Seattle, turn left.
Go to San Diego, turn left.
Go to Miami, turn left.
Return to the starting line.
Then we drove back to Dallas!

They shoulda advertised it with "Automatic right hand turns".
Never thought of it like that, I guess it IS named "Daytona". (Maybe "reverse Daytona" would have been more appropriate?)
My friend had an '85. First time I've ever had a steering wheel jump out of my hands. Yikes.
