Cannonball Europe
Ran 5 times from 1981
I can find almost no information about this event, that ran five times from 1981.
Most of the information I have is from another website page written in German. The author of that page participated in the 1981 and 1982 Cannonball Europe races but I could not find his name.
Several people have since contacted me with other information and photos.
After the 1981 and 1982 runnings, there were three more events, the last with 26 participants. Unfortunately the organisers pictures and documents were confiscated by the authorities and never returned, so the photos on the author's page are some of the only remaining.
1981 Cannonball Europe
The first Cannoball Rallye Europa ran from the North Sea coast so Southern Spain from 25 April and promised a 10,000 Marks prize.
1982 Cannonball Europe
The second running of Cannonball Rallye Europa started on 27 March 1982 and finished in Marbella, Spain.
