Jamie farr played the Arab in all 3 movies...the third one called speed zone...if you've never seen speed zone, consider yourself lucky. It was about as good a smokey and the bandit 3. Mad

The movie "Gumball Rally" was the funniest( to me ) of those type movies, but i don't remember any G3's in it. I think it came out before the Cannonball movies. It was loosely based on writer Brock Yates' actual run across the country. I do love the Cannonball movies too though!

One of my favorite movies growing up was up in smoke...(my mom hated that). Used cars was another (she didn't like that one any better) Very Happy

Cheech & Chong are hilarious.

Hey I saw Linda Vaughn in that promo for Gumball Rally thumbing a ride! "No Catalytic Converters & no 55 mph Speed limit". That's a good flick too.

HA HA HA HA....That must have been after he was "Grasshopper" in Kung Fu. That show launched him & he made some pretty terrible movies. The tv show was good though.

Grasshopper, How Ghey ! No offense he's dead and all, but what a wierdo!

by 77mali Thu Aug 01, 2013 9:50 pm

Yeah didn't he choke himself to death during a liaison in Thailand? How messed up is that?

I found it amusing that the Laguna changed into a '76 Monte Carlo.

Yeah, I mentioned that when I posted it, I first noticed that when I was probably 10 years old. Very Happy

I've loved these cars ever since I was young and they were everywhere.

After you posted this thread I went to the local Record Exchange and they actually had a copy of Cannonball Run on DVD for $7. Now I can watch it on a loop.
