Australian Cannonball Run 1984, Melbourne to Perth, ep 1 " police and associated bits" illegal race.

The first installment of footage from the 1984 Australian cannonball run, Melbourne to Perth. Police harassment or fair game? From a treasure trove of 40-year-old footage of an unmade documentary comes this vintage footage. No music, no narration just the footage clipped together. Let me know if you enjoy it for what it is. I'll be adding more footage in future episodes including a rundown on my ZF Fairlane "Trans Aust" as featured in feb 2024 Street Machine magazine in Australia. thanks for watching.

Bit like in SA the government and the fisheries ask the fishers where are the best fishing grounds , then they put a no fishing zone on them areas , never tell the truth whats best or where your going you end up as shark bait

great content but 2 small things. the letterboxing made it extremely hard to watch and in a couple of scenes there was no sound but a hiss, would have been better to have just muted those yourself. if somehow you didnt do the letterboxing yourself tehre is a free program called handbrake which can automatically crop clips for you before you edit your vid. good to see ya back tho with some smashing content.

This would have been an incredible experience regardless. Was this organized in the same spirit as Brock Yates had originally intended his own events?

This is so great! There's some nuts single car cross country runs across America. I reckon with the same amount of planning someone could pull it off here. Organised events are dicey.

[@watsisbuttndo829]

Organiser was a trusting soul.
