I'm the organizer of the 2010 Bandit Run

Thanks, that website is produced by one of our members. The official site with registration and hotels, schedules, etc. is www.thebanditrun.com

 

Well, his name in the movies was Cletus Snow.... makes sense to me.

 

Atlanta to Texarkana and back in twenty eight hours? That ain't never been done before.

 

The Bandit Run did it in 2007 but it took us several days.

 

Add to the cletus snow......the first truck pulled a reefer

How else did they plan on keeping all that coors beer cold?
Lol

 

They had to make the run fast enough that it would not get warm.
Now all Coors is shipped in Dry Vans....ok, most of it.
The new stay cold cans were made for that reason. Now they do not have the weight issues we use to have hauling it.

 

That's the bitter-sweet part of that movie. Beer is very cool, Banquet beer is nasty!

 

When did they start that? Coor's was always shipped cold. I haven't hauled any in years but I used to pick up in Golden a lot and they were pretty strict on their reefers back then.

 

The Bandit Run begins next weekend. (We leave Braselton, GA on Sunday, May 16th) Y'all should be seeing a lot of classic Trans Ams headed to the Atlanta, GA area for the start. People are coming in from all over the country, as well as, from Canada. We have more than 100 cars this year since we are headed to Jupiter FL to party with the real Bandit. We'll try to stay out of your way guys. We are going to have safety meetings each morning and remind folks we might be on vacation but you are working. We try to stick to the secondary roads when possible, but I know we are headed from GA to FL on I-75 Monday May 17th. Give us a shout on the radio if you are in the area. Most of us have CBs.

 

I #### sure wouldn't mind you guy's being in the way for a good tribute. That's cool that an event has been organized in the name of these legends. Kudo's to you guy's!
