My great-grandparents were bootleggers here in Tennessee. My grandpa told me stories about being a kid in the back of their Mercury running from the cops. His parents had a hole cut in the floorboard in the back and they would have my grandpa pour out the liquor through the hole while the cops were chasing them! I thought he was telling tall tales but my dad told me he was telling the truth 100%!
Years ago I worked at Three Dollar Cafe in McDonough, Ga. You could always count on David Black for a $100 tip when he came in for dinner with his wife. His Lambo is the only one I have ever sat in also. Great guy!
I know where one of Burt Reynold's previously owned houses is, only a couple hours away... maybe he should buy it! It had the canoe from deliverance hanging from the vaulted ceiling 😳 well atleast until his ex-wife became the owner and it disappeared 😄
That 5:00am departure time was a blessing because you missed the fifty-leven million deer on the side of the interstate between AL and MS. Great run guys!
"We were coming at it like two on-the-spectrum people going into a 13-hour video game." I don't think I could come up with a better description of it than that. This is why I love Cannonball/Bandit Runs.
As someone who lives in Shreveport and drives to Texarkana regularly, it was super unlucky that yall even saw a cop on 49. There's almost never any patrol in that area.
No kidding, I actually live in an area between both Shreveport and Texarkana drove it damn near everyday for 3.5 years you hardly ever see any Caddo Parish through there if you do they’re just cruising or going home.
I remeber commuting to college one day and there was a porsche cruising fast, I was in a camry hybrid. Amazingly the car was limited to 120mph but with cruise control on the car got a steady 20 mpg.
Lol yup can’t afford to be the fastest guy anymore but I’ll gladly take second and no ticket😁😂 happened just the other day on 75 going into Cincinnati, a KY trooper stopped the black civic I was keeping pace with at 95 and I just slowed to 70 till he was out of sight.
10:09 Thank You! I drive on I-10 between Florida and MS multiple times a week. Evidently, people from Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi were never taught how to drive on the interstate. The left lane is always full of cars….mainly from Texas and LA. And im not just talking about little old ladies either. In fact, it’s been said that a lifted truck from Texas has never been in a right lane before. 😭 People from Alabama are pretty good about it, and FL drivers are ok I guess. 😂
Had the same thing happen with about a 98 Camry. I was driving a 2016 BMW 550i back to Chicago that I had just flew in to purchase from outside St Louis. On the return drive I would open her up for stretches to around 100mph depending on traffic. On one of these stretches this irritating Camry started started running with me. I would try to get rid of it but couldn’t. Of course I could out accelerate it but didn’t wanna risk getting a reckless driving ticket maintaining 120mph + for an extended period to do so. I would run up to 130mph+ and have to slow down for traffic or minimize my risk of a ticket and the Camry would be right back on my bumper. Like them, this went on for about an hour until I could finally get away for good.
@@jruerph well my best time between Chicago and the border in Sarnia, CAN was in a Camry... V6 TRD is not joke for an econo box. top speed is 131-133 fwiw.

I hate this - had S-line Audis and 20-year old Nissans do this Which is idiotic since in low traffic and good conditions you can cruise the highway at 100-110 without any risk or endangerment.
1972..In my freshman year of college, at our 8 am class I asked the hottest girl on campus for a weekend date to Savannah Beach as Spring Break was coming up. She said to me "if you can bring me some sand from the beach TODAY, I'll go to the beach w/ you". SO, I replied " I'll be back before the baseball game tonight". I lit out in my 1970 914 Porsche. Drove non stop to Tybee Island, Ga scooped up a 7-11 coffee cup full of Savannah Beach Sand, fueled up and headed back to Gainesville Jr. college. I was back1 hour before the game with Savannah Beach Sand in hand!". She kept her word. We went to the beach for spring break. I should have went BY MY SELF ! Could have saved myself that first trip LOL!! A prominent Area DR's daughter~~ what a waste! Anyway, to you rally guys, I have a 1999 996 OCT' "98 built Gen 1 well sorted w/ LN IMS etal, ready for a road rally.

Fastest vehicle I’ve ever encountered on US highways: Toyota Avalon with diplomat stickers and plates … Honorable mention: pink n yellow Calloway Corvette with balls to the wall overtaking on the right shoulder maneuvers.
I like the fact that Doug is describing driving over 100mph and then he complains that the other cars are racing him and that's dangerous. That's the pot calling the kettle black. But if I'm on the interstate and another person is speeding, I will absolutely pace them out because let them get the ticket. I'm not racing, I'm just taking advantage of the other person's stupidity.
@@JK-g62 Sometimes there is too much car and not enough driver. Other times, there is too much driver and not enough car. Then there is that perfect blend of man and machine. That point you become a driver. Once you become a driver, you are in the zone. But I never said I was also driving their speed. I will pace them at 80 or 85, maybe even 90. But not 100 mph. Anyone who is a driver, a true driver, has gone over 100 and kept the needle buried in the trips. But I'm not doing it. Because even being a driver, means you must prepare for the inevitable too much car, not enough driver. And at triple digits, it comes too fast to do very much.
@@clifbradley Clif... ok, thanks for the followup. You are correct in that alot of drivers dont have the skillsets to react to situations that come up while driving 100+mph. Or their vehicle isnt modified to do those speeds safely. When u said you will pace those vehicles doing that speed...in my mind you were driving exactly as they were...and doing the same dangerous moves they were doing through traffic. When u clarified that you werent driving at the same speed as them i understood. However...you definitely have to watch your "6" as not all cops come from whats ahead.
There’s one of those hill crests if you go south into Boston on I-93. It’s beautiful. You take a turn and creat a hill at the same time and it’s just the whole sky line of Boston and if you do it at the right time you can even line the sunrise up with it
Heh! I know I have had plenty of fun in my V6 Accord. I'm sure the V6 camry is about the same. Damn fast, somewhat nimble with the right tire/wheel combo, and totally f-ing invisible to police. Well, except for that one time I was clocked at 120. Thankfully I was already slowing down for my exit.
Great story and congratulations. Now for the important bit. Let's have a link to those binoculars. There are a few things our presenters said that resonated with me. First, the "I wanna go fast too" person, when you pass people and they fall in behind like its a highspeed oval nascar race. It ruins the mojo. It turns that ridiculous speeding ticket into a racing ticket, and they don't know how.. they just don't. I had an orange dodge mini-van with an R taped to the back door following me. I would wrap up to 130 or so and try to lose them, and sure enough, here they are again. I finally conceded for their own good and let him pass. His wife was in the passenger seat. It appeared they had been arguing. Second, the "My car can do that too" person. Picture if you will, I'm quietly sneaking down the road in an overpriced BMW 7 wearing its sticky fat tires, feeling a bit happy about the moment. Only to have a hard right side pass by a Pontiac Grand Prix with one tiny funny tire, no license plate, and a front fender kinda flapping in the wind. It can wreck a mood to put it in possibly realistic terms. So again, I feel an obligation to slow down and squelch whatever competition they are having for their own good. It like some folks have no idea how long you crash for when you're going 100 mph. The best car I have ever owned for going much much too much faster was a white Lexus LS430. The car is virtually invisible. It is fast and, with the addition of Brembo brakes, fairly capable. Handling was not razor-sharp, so extra caution was required when passing. That rig was not going to sweep three lanes at triple digits without arguing which end was supposed to be in front.
My dad went to Tech. He swears the first solid food I put in my mouth was a Varsity hotdog. Every time I get back to Atlanta, first stop. Oh,my dad use to own a 58, 300 SLR back in the 70s. Huge car fan.
Was crossing the country in the deep night, with a radar detector. In the mid 1990's. Only about 85, on an empty, empty interstate. (PA?) Some guy kinda detected what I was doing and tucked in behind me. Close. His headlights were super annoying. I flicked lights on/off, and gestured in my rearview. No change. Upped it to 95, upped it to 100. He/she stuck right on my bumper. Lasted about 70 miles, until they left. Flashed their lights at me! Thought I was his/her buddy? Very frustrating.
Ysob how many people paused it between 2:21 and 2:22 just to notice that if you do not have a video editing software you have no chance of catching what his other option was going to be
I don’t know what they’re so surprised about. Here in Germany you get passed by everything. I have chased an Audi RS5 in a Kia picanto once. Tops out at190 kmh downhill if you wonder.

Why Coors? Coors used to be unpasteurized, you had to keep it cold or it would spoil. It was also GREAT beer. Back then (70's) if you took a trip out west (close to Golden Coloroado) you would bring back a couple cases of Coors. THATS....why Coors. My dad told me story about seeing a couple of Cobra chopper pilots unloading a load of Coors at an airport in St. Louis. They had the underbelly of that helo packed with Coors!

Back then (70's) if you took a trip out west (close to Golden Coloroado) you would bring back a couple cases of Coors. THATS....why Coors. My dad told me story about seeing a couple of Cobra chopper pilots unloading a load of Coors at an airport in St. Louis. They had the underbelly of that helo packed with Coors!
Haha I was said team who bought all the beer at 7am when the gas stationed opened!
Well, we left some for Taylor, which does have some redeeming value.
Amazing!
Is that a Blipshift shirt that Doug is wearing?
That Camry had Altima Energy.
I saw a Bandit Porsche (screaming chicken on hood) and another white Porsche with trailer where interstate E-80 merges into I-20 outside Dallas last week
👋🏼
Maybe not you guys but hi
I was the Ram Rebel that flew by if it was y’all
Couple years ago I saw an auction on eBay. It was a 1999 (or close) V6 manual TRD supercharged Camry. Could it be?
Where would a guy be able to get the southern classic banner?
Dammit, another thing to add to my bucket list.
Set up a Yeungling run for people in the Midwest.
Well depending on starting and finishing point we have Yuengling beer here in Kentucky....
Kinda want to do this run myself in a Camry now just to see if I can beat your time. Does a lotus count same motor? Otherwise lots of upgrades will be needed
Despite the 100mpg avg speed, their avg fuel consumption was 21.4mpg. That is remarkable, that TT flat 6 is wonderfully efficient.
I have a Audi A7 3.0tdi 320 hp, and it has pretty much the exact same fuel consumption at the same average speed!
If it wasn't for the need for a back seat and trunk space I would definitely prefer to drive a 911...
I would absolutely love to do the Bandit run with a copy of Gator's LTD😂
Love the madtv reference 👌
what app are they running on the tablet?
New Mexico Loves Doug!
Santa Fe Racers Be Like....
SEE THAT, IM DOUG!!!!
In ALL of his extra-medium goodness ❗🤣
Handled projects at an aerospace place. The 6'6" big boss "Steve." Combat -vet Marine SF. His 6'2" right hand man? "Steve." Combat-vet Blackhawk pilot. So I had to call them "Big & Little Ennis." Thank God we had a good relationship and they have excellent sense of humor.
Relevance? I want to think that "Tiny Dancer" Tabbutt (Thank Rabbit for that) dressed as an "Ennis." One of the 1st things I demonstrated to my daughters with a GT350 is how people will try to race you or goad you into doing stupid S...took maybe a 5 minute drive
Buying all the beer is a duche move
Great story! Can we turn down the volume on the ad at the end? It’s way louder than the content.
8:50 this must've been so confusing for her lol
So cute how Doug does a few track days here and there, outruns a couple of divorce lawyers and gynaecologists, and then thinks of himself as a professional driver LOL
I wanna do the Bandit Run in a W900. Is there a class for that?
Great one thanks!
Yeah, the new sport cameras are no slouches. Also hilariously, the new RAV4 Prime is Toyota's second fastest vehicle in their Fleet right now.
arguably one of their lamest models, STILL.
Anyone know what app is being used on the phone at 11:40?
Waiting for the drive to "The DeLeon" lol 👦🏻👍🏻🏁🏎
Does anyone know what the tablet on the right of the windshield is displaying?
He called the Varsity a restaurant. That’s a stretch.
Doug, could you elaborate more on the spec of those binoculars?
Looks like this is it. www.amazon.com/Fujinon-Techno-TS1440-14x40-Stabilization-Binocular/dp/B0000C16R8
HOLY SHIT
"The best way I can describe it is if the Devil was designing the perfect place in hell for a car guy is would be that he'd have you race a Camry in a [when you're in a] Porsche 911 and always loose."
Love seeing Doug on these videos
