movie for me at that age when it came out, but the Cannonball Run was also real. And I wondered if people were still doing it. Mindbogglingly, the answer is yes. I have no idea how they get away with it, but I found this mindboggli-isimo fact of the matter: The traditional route runs from New York City’s Red Ball Garage to the Portofino Hotel in Redondo Beach, California, covering approximately 2,813 miles. Current record-holders for the modern unsanctioned run are Arne Toman, Douglas Tabbutt, and spotter Dunadel Daryoush, who completed the trip in 25 hours and 39 minutes in May 2020. They drove a modified 2016 Audi S6 disguised as a Ford Police Interceptor, achieving an average speed of 112 mph (180 km/h) and a top speed of 175 mph (282 km/h) while utilizing advanced evasion tactics like thermal cameras and laser jammers.
