Its one of many drive most of the day drink all night events which sort of try to imitate original illegal Cannonball and US Express races from seventies and early eighties. When in those real deals it was one long drive from east to west coast in these later drive & drink events distance is split into several parts and there is parties in luxury hotels before in between and after. Gumball 3000 started the trend and many other events have tried to emulate it. Bullrun is probably best organized copy. These are for little bit different people than original hardcore record runs. It seems to be seen in event like this is more important to most participants than actual long distance drive as quickly as possible. Drive is sort of necessary evil and topic of conversation in parties instead of only thing that matters. I would rather spend $20k on legal fees after organizing original Cannonball type event myself instead of spending it to Bullrun or any other similar rally.
