I'd be up for assisting in some way, as a cop. Obviously, my attendance will depend on whether the higher powers allow us to attend, or even organise a system of checkpoints (to catch you all at it, of course). But whether we cops are able to attend or not certainly shouldn't be a reason for it not going ahead - regularly! Just like the real Cannonball Run was, it's illegal, and the participants are fair game for the cops, and it's bloody dangerous. So go ahead... just don't get caught. Obviously, the winner will be the first car to reach, ooh, shall we say the Lighthouse at the far north of the island, beyond Molos and the salt plant? I bet none of you have ever been up there - so it'd be nice to give it a reason to exist! First one through the gate into the Lighthouse compound is the winner, maybe?
Of course, whether we cops are properly 'in attendance' or going about our daily duties, you will be speed-trapped en route, and possibly checkpointed (if we can get something sorted in time - and of course, we can do the ol' staggered vehicle trick anytime if needs be). If we catch you hurtling through Telos at 150kmh, then you will get pulled and ticketed accordingly - but of course your Group Chat is your CB radio, isn't it? If you've any sense, you'll be sending out runners to beat the bushes, or taking it in turns to lead point. And of course, just like in the real Cannonball, you don't have to stay on the main highway. The point is, getting there. However. And in one piece!
Good luck, whatever happens... and watch out for that left-right hander at Paros. It's a bitch! I bet we'll be scraping someone off that wall before the day is out...
