Gumball Rally - Race Leaving NY City

*/ To see the high quality version, add '&fmt=18' behind the url. Minus the quotations /*

The Gumball Rally is a 1976 film about a coast-to-coast road race. It was inspired by the actual Cannonball Baker Sea-To-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash run held by Brock Yates that inspired several other movies, like Cannonball with David Carradine, also from 1976. The main difference is while Cannonball is an action film, The Gumball Rally is a comedy, just like the later series of Cannonball movies starring Burt Reynolds and many others. The Gumball Rally is often considered better and less infantile[citation needed] compared to the later, star-studded exploitations of The Cannonball Run, which even copied the running gags of the police man chasing the racers through the whole USA. Though Gumball Rally's entire premise is copied from the actual cross country race the Cannonball Baker Sea-To-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash which was created and organized by Brock Yates who wrote the script for The Cannonball Run film.

The Gumball Rally stars Raul Julia, Michael Sarrazin, Norman Burton, Gary Busey, John Durran, Tim McIntire, and Susan Flannery, and was directed and co-written by Chuck Bail.

That Ferrari passing has to be one of the greatest sounds ever recorded

[redbuick]

This is one of my favorite movies i have it on dvd. The daytona and the cobra were my favorites with the camaro and dodge police car close behind. the nut on the kawasaki cracked me up. Tricia o'neal was a hottie back in the 70's also. love when they run in manhattan, 427 cobra v8 vs ferrari v12.Great movie. timeless fun.

Close your eyes.... see if you can pick out the Ferrari by sound. One of the greatest noises you'll ever hear.
