Additional passengers and/or co-drivers pay a fee of £10,000 GBP per person.

Cannonball 8000 is £4500 to enter
but then you need fuel and fine money

A friend of mine and myself are taking part in this Years Cannonball
We are doing it in a Mk2 Capri with a V6 Cosworth engine out of a Scorpio

We recon our total bill excluding car is about £8000

That also includes a nights b&b and a few laps of the Nurbergring on the way home

It is a shite load of money, But gunna be the best party ever

If you wanna follow our Journy follow the link
