Exactly great to see it from her point of view
Thank you, Ms. Yates for agreeing to share your car stories with the VinWiki family. While the Cannonball movie is legendary for it's story lines and humor. Only the people who were actually there can tell you the backstories that Hollywood can't. Thanks again, Lady Pamela. The big chair is always yours, please come back soon!

Here, Here! I second the motion. Likewise, should the opportunity avail itself in the near future. A visit from "Gentleman" John Ficarra to come regale us with another 4 or 6 wheeled adventure in his own unique style is in order. The Big chair beckons! #TheDudeAbides #ThisCanBeRed❗
Words from the women herself, I feel like I'm in the company of a celebrity
Inviting the troopers out was epic. That must have been one wild night.
this is absolute GOLD
I've heard a lot of Cannonball stories, told by a few different people..this was hands down the absolute best one yet. Thanks for sharing!

More of these classic stories! VinWiki is a great historical record, the modern stuff is good, but these classic stories are GOLD!
Out of all the awesome stories that have been told on this channel, this one is my favorite and in my opinion the best one. Ed you are a very lucky man and I envy you being able to talk to Lady Pamela herself. She is true automotive royalty. Thank You for sharing this interview.
Not only is Lady Pamela here but she’s an absolute legend and a wonderful storyteller. So happy to get to hear this story.
For you younger crowd that don’t know, this woman and her late husband are absolute legends.
I love watching her stories. it's like sitting down with my grandma and her telling me cool stories all the time like she used to. Thanks Lady Pamela!
Absolutely one of my favorite movies growing up, and hearing this story from the lady herself…. My day is made, might as well go to sleep right now because it ain’t getting any better then this.
For a story I’ve heard from many perspectives this is one of my favorite.
Thank You Mrs. Yates for sharing such an amazing story!
Love these old cannonball story's, these guys and gals seem like a fun group.
Crazy coincidence, I just came across my copy of "Cannonball" written and autographed by Brock Yates last night....It was an honor to get a first run copy and gave it signed, I knew a some of the stories from the book but hearing one first hand from Pamela is priceless.😅😂🤣😉👍
this means a bit more to those of us who grew up in the 70's and remember how life was back then
We thought lazer jammers and radar detectors were wild. Theses guys took “counter measures” to the moon! They built an ambulance and even stuck an IV in this woman. The Nardi wheel and Recaro seats with a loping V8 is really cool too:)

All my life I have read the words of Yates and other cannonball alumni. It will never get old hearing these stories.
Dear vinWiki, Absolutely FANTASTIC!! I have watched every single episode for the last 2 years..COULD YOU PLEASE GET DENNIS COLLINS IN THE CHAIR??? No matter what in takes, but leave Richard Rawlings in Dallas. Thank You!
This is the best Cannonball story that we've heard!
My new favourite Vinwiki story teller. Hoping to hear more stories from Lady Pamela. This one was epic!
Ever cannonball story on here is so emotional that I can't pick a favorite. But this might be number 1.
Lady Pamela is a wonderful story teller. I could listen to her for hours. Imagine all the incredible things she experienced with Brock. Since I was a kid I always enjoyed Brocks stories and magazine articles. Every so often I watch Cannonball on my VCR, yeah it’s crappie but there’s something about the old tech that makes me smile while watching the old movies.
Incredible story and wonderful to see the Lovely Lady Pamela that I have read about since the 1980's in Car and Driver!
What a wonderful story, an iconic story. And Pam is completely adorable. Thanks Ed, I absolutely love the content.
I’m not sure cannonball stories can get much better than this. What a gem.
Thank you VINwiki for bringing Lady Pamela to tell a awesome story!
You’ve all outdone yourselves with this one… great story, fantastic lady, it doesn’t get any better…
Legendary. Pure. Legendary.
God Bless Pamela! She tells the story perfectly! 😍😎😂
We live in rural Northern Minnesota my wife went into labor i was speeding down the highway to the nearest hospital highway patrol pulled me over asked me why i was speeding told him my wife was in labor and way trying to get her to a hospital he said he didnt care and drive the speed limit lol
Lady Pam laying it down. I love it!
This has got to be my favorite story of all time
Thank you for telling the story of that amazing encounter, Lady Pamela. Myself, and others I'm sure, would love to here more of your adventures. They would be an privilege and an honor to hear.
One of the best vinwiki stories. Great one
The Cannonball Run had a huge influence in my life and this is why I've been a subscriber from the beginning. My question is how do you feel about having a bunch of great actors come together to make a movie about what you did.
"Needham said f**k every 12 seconds."🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is best cannonball run story
Thanks Ed, and crew. One of the best yet
Wow. That's probably the best Vinwiki story I've heard. Thanks Ed!
Thank you Ms Yates for sharing this incredible (to us) part of your life.
One of the best stories on this channel.
I do so love this story. We often think that much of this was so well planned, tested and executed. And it's only dumdums like "us" that are getting it together the morning of. We all have had moments where things go way wrong and others that go pretty close to as planned. But nothing is more thrilling at the end of the day than when you look at each other and realize we should have never gotten away with what happened back there and this car should not have held together 20 miles let alone 2000. Zip ties and duct tape are the classic joke, but when you roll into your destination beating all the odds of logic and reason it's just so sweet.
How Great! Way to go Lady Pamela!
What a great story... what a great lady! Brock Yates was the real deal-- there will never be another one like him!
My favorite video on this channel so far!
Not gunna lie, awesome to here a woman's story on VInWiki. We need more
I got to meet Brock and Pam at their house. They were really friendly and nice.
What a great story. Shame it wasn't depicted quite like that in the film, but still absolutely brilliant 😂❤️
These are the best stories! Thanks for sharing!
It’s amazing to hear these stories from the First Lady herself. Thanks for having her on and sharing these bits of history with the rest of us.
Lady Pamela reminds me of that grandma that always the greatest stories of "when i was younger we..." Bless you Lady Pamela.
@VINwiki ... I would like to thank you all so very much for balancing the volume better and restoring the Closed Captions... Thank You and Many Blessings , SMR
Best Vin Wiki Story in a very long time!!!!
So lovely to Lady Pamela telling the stories of cannon ball, history will not be lost, thanks Ed, Rj in Oz
We need more old school stories like this 🤣🤣🤣
wonderful video today - thank you! and thank her!
What a great Story. Brock and Pam are such wonderful people. We used to dine in their Cannonball Pub in NY State. It so great to get HER point of view on all of this, just fills in the story in a very special way. Thank you VinWiki!
Best story yet. Was awesome hearing her talk about it.
Yup, one of my favorite movies.
Outstanding story loved every minute of it
this is simply amazing! haha i love stories like this.
This was a great way to complete the story. I like how she pointed out the "parallels" where everyone involved had their own perspective on this bizarre incident.
Bolian- This is the best story/storyteller that you’ve had on this channel in the many years I’ve been watching. Good show, good man.
That was AWESOME!! Thank you lady Pamela.... Just a wonderful story. 👍🏁👍🏁👍🏁👍
I bet Lady Pamela could do several storys!
The book is great, got to read it if interested in the whole cannonball story. Especially Dan Gurney talking about driving that Ferrari Daytona at 160 mph at night. A can’t put it down book!
Thank you sm for this!
soo cool to hear the storys from the actual people that where there... keep em coming
Excellent story…well done, thanks for your web site!👍
What an amazing story. Thanks!
Cool story, those old photos look so awesome!
