Cannonball 1976

HOT on the heels of his uber-successful TV series Kung Fu, David Carradine slipped on his best pair of moccasins to play Coy ‘Cannonball’ Buckman in Cannonball. Buckman is a professional racing car driver looking to get back on the circuit after a heavy fall from grace. He is not long out of prison and itching to claim the $100K kitty on offer for the winner of the Trans-America Grand Prix, an illegal road race from Los Angeles to New York.

His sleazy older brother Bennie (Miller) locks down a 1970 Trans Am for the event and sets about organising a number of dodgy deals and often-deadly foul play to ensure Cannonball comes out on top, all in an attempt to line his own pockets.
