Start midnight Friday, Aug 15. Arrive Montreal ~noon Saturday, Aug 16 (or sooner if you've got fresh driving skills). Use your wiles or a whup-ass navigator to choose the best and fastest routes. Checkpoints ensure mostly backroads driving. Saturday night we throw a huge party with drunk-making beverages. There'll be plenty of places to crash (Montreal, despite being in Canada, is a real city and sports plenty of bunks near the party site). Read on, son.
These are the rules. Pls pay attention. The first rule is the most important. No speeding. Read on, son.

Every red-blooded American boy thrilled to Cannonball Run's high-octane adventure: exotic cars, perilous stunt-driving, and super-charged racial and sexual stereotyping. Delivering everything but a one-eyed black Jew dressed as a priest: Rental Car Rally.

Cannonball Run references aside, this is a different type of race: Controlled checkpoints, a strict no-speeding rule, and lots of communal eating. It still somehow scratches that Burt Reynolds itch, though.
