I really liked what you said about “cannonballing” without setting a record. Before the pandemic, I frequently had to drive nearly coast to coast, but I had a tesla. Given how frequently they need to charge, there is no hope at breaking any records, but this electric version of cannonballing formed some of the most fun and exciting memories I have.

Maybe if I ever get a long range Tesla, I could give it a shot, but it’s a much nerdier cannonball than the traditional cannonball since you can’t really exceed 120 mph and your primary goal is reducing your Wh/mi. Much more of a technological feat at this point. Edit: you can obviously go over 120, but it destroys your range

Being a big fan of the cannonball run starting in highschool, in my college years I did a "cannonball" run with a friend, no extra fuel tank, no spotters, no jammers, just a v1 and a love of driving. We never went that fast, worried about getting arrested haha. Obviously some spirited driving in there, and we followed the old rule of never going by another car at 20 over their speed. Still a lot of fun, and a great memory. I would love to do it again with a bit more organization though.

@Lynx Actual I have an Audi RS3, Mercedes E55 AMG and a C6 Z06. and no it doesn’t, maybe an F10 but an F90 M5 runs 10.6 second 1/4 mile at 130 mph and a 100-200 kmh of 6.6 seconds stock A stock Redeye runs 10.8 seconds at 126.6 mph and a 100-200 kmh in 7.5 seconds. Taking in cannonballing, handling is needed for 150 mph Mountain corners, Left lane hogs so you can weave around without losing grip etc. I have driven a hellcat redeye and they get 0 traction and have terrible handling.

@aimxdy8680

Жыл бұрын

@Lynx Actual In cannonballing 60-130 and 100-150 matters the most. M5 comps do a 7.5 second 60-130 while a hellcat does 8.5 second 60-130. Also M5 pulls 1.00 G’s in cornering (1.02 for the CS) while hellcat pulls 0.93 G’s and brakes from 100 mph to 0 in 281 feet while hellcat takes 309 feet, braking and handling is important in cannonballing whether it is pulling Mountain corners at 150 mph or braking for a left lane hog and weaving around. M5 does Virginia international RaceTrack at 2.54, (2.50 for the CS) while hellcat does 3.03. You raced an M3 or an M550i, not an M5. Hellcats are just not good and I could not give a fuck about your car. I’m talking about cannonballing. You need good MPG at high speeds for cannonballing and hellcats get like 3 MPG at high speeds which would increase time stopped for fuel stops.

I agree, because when you listen to the drivers talk about their runs, you know they're normal, logical people, not some psychopaths or anything. They are breaking the law without really doing anything particularly "wrong". It's just living proof that following or not following the rules has nothing to do with being a good/moral person, and that the law isn't the highest force in the universe.
