FIREBALL RUN: The Movie (2008) watch online HD

2008 FIREBALL RUN Transcontinental Rally is the only rally to race on the State Police track in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

The rally saw its first 18 Wheeler entry... yes he did it "with" the trailer attached.

Louisiana Secretary of State, Jay Dardenne (R), and Baton Rouge Mayor, Kip Holden (D), did an impromptu rendition of Ebony & Ivory at the event's starting line.

Fireball Run Transcontinental Rally's Early Arrival Mixer was held inside the Louisiana State Capitol building and is the only motor-sports event to have been granted this honor.

Infamous Pastor, Jimmy Swaggart was originally scheduled to appear at the "Delta Music Museum" mission in Ferriday, Louisiana. However this did not happen because the Pastor was "unclear" about how his name would associate with the event.

Several Movie Cars entered the event; Back to the Future II Time Car, K.I.T.T., and a Firebird as seen in Smokey & the Bandit. In keeping with the theme a competitor wrapped his Bentley Flying Spur to look like the General Lee.

Jackson Mississippi, Mayor Frank Melton, is the only Host City Mayor not to appear in the 2008 event; he was indicted on civil rights charges the morning of the events start in the city.

The 2008 rally was the last to use the original "Transcontinental" moniker in its title.

The 2008 rally was themed Eighties Sequels, thus all the rally promotional posters were knockoffs of 1980 movie sequels; Back to the Future II, Caddy Shack II, and Star Trek II.

Two classic Lamborghini Countach's entered the rally, although one did not make it off the starting line and was immediately substituted by its owner for a Jaguar.
