"Since we announced the Cannonball 8000 we have been inundated with enquiries and there is a great deal of interest in the event both here and in mainland Europe and entrants as far as New Zealand. Already we have a number of exotic supercars from leading motor manufacturers with interest from hotel, fashion and lifestyle companies asking about sponsorship opportunities, we know this will be one of the largest events in the European motoring calendar in 2004."
