Cannonball Club
Your gateway to a variety of Cannonball events and Challenges
Welcome to the Cannonball Club — a community for drivers and riders who love precision, adventure, and the open road.
Membership gives you early access to our Cannonball experiences and our flagship endurance events. Whether you want a one-day challenge or a bigger multi-stage adventure, the Cannonball Club is where it starts.
This isn’t racing.
It’s a new kind of motorsport-style challenge built around navigation, accuracy, and driving enjoyment, each event is a challenge and results scored on navigation not speed – but there is a time limit on the events.
All events use modern digital technology and an instant leaderboard to bring everyone together.
What is the Drivers Club?
The Cannonball Club is a membership community that connects you to:
-
Cannonball Road Rally Challenge events (200 km/ 300km / special editions)
-
Cannonball1000 endurance events (including longer “do it in your own time” challenges)
-
Practice days, training and navigation guidance
-
A national results culture — with leaderboards, awards and recognition

A modern club—without motorsport costs
Traditional motorsport can be expensive: club fees, track days, licensing, special preparation and equipment.
The Cannonball Club is designed to deliver the feeling of motorsport and rallying — without the typical barriers.
You don’t need:
-
A race licence
-
A special car
-
A trailer
-
Track-day budgets
You just need a road-legal car or motorcycle, and a desire to take on a real challenge.
What are Cannonball events?
The Cannonball events are precision rally experiences built around:
-
Carefully planned tarmac routes
-
Digital navigation (roadbook or GPX-style routes depending on edition)
-
GPS monitoring for waypoint validation, speed-zone compliance, and scoring
-
A national leaderboard to compare yourself with other drivers and riders
Some Cannonball events run on specific dates — others can be offered as remote rallies, where you start when it suits you and appear on the leaderboard once you complete the route.

Safety & professionalism

GPS tracking supports safety monitoring for every event.

Speed-controlled zones help keep the challenge fair and compliant.
-
Clear guidance, training and event rules support every entrant.
This is a precision driving event — not a race.
FAQ’s
Do I need a special vehicle?

No — we provide training, practice days, and simple “how it works” content.
Is it a race?
No. It’s a precision driving experience focused on navigation and accuracy but it is a challenge and there is a competitive edge.
