Hello to all the Mischief members, I wanted to let you know that I will be racing in this years Cannonball Run/oloa and if that wasn't fun enough I will be driving in my project car, which is a 2008 smart fortwo. We made the official announcement here: http://www.451s.com/oloa

The car has its own website, ( http://www.forfiveone.com ) listing the items installed and the build process, its a little outdated but we will be adding in more details as to all the new items installed shortly.

But on to the good part, this year all the tracks are open to the public to come out watch the events and even get access into the pit/staging areas so you can get up close with the nearly 100 exotics and the drivers. Admission to almost all tracks are free as we've actually rented the tracks for the day so its ours to do what we like and we'd like to have more people out to cheer on the drivers and join in on this the 25th anniversary race of this famous/notorious races.

Here is a list of the tracks and the dates that we'll be at them, if you have questions you can PM me or reply and I hope to see at least one Mischief logo'd car at each track, come by and say "hi" and maybe we'll give you a cannonball sticker for your vehicle ;)

this sounds like the One Lap of America tour. (edit: because it is!) I was going to go on the 2006 with Dale Seely's SRT-4 team, but we had my second daughter about 2 weeks before the start.

Hi l3it3r, hope you can make it out this year, do you have a car to enter or looking to be a 3rd man co-driver? We'd love to take someone with us in the smart, but just like a lamborghini the smart only fits 2 ;)
