I already got an email back from Brock Jr...he has already forwarded it to his lawyers.

[matthewAPM]

Well after reading all this, I have a few questions.

1. Where is the start, and where is the finish?
2. Who is paying for this $4000?
3. How did you get to use the Cannonball name?
4. Who is making this movie and where will it be played?
5. How can you use the Cannonball name for this movie?
6. Do you have maps?
7. Do the site owners where the start/finish is, know you are doing this?
8. Have you GPS'd the roads, figured out where the cops are bad, and if the roads have construction?
9. Are you checking drivers license?
10. Will you respond to my question??

I already got an email back from Brock Jr...he has already forwarded it to his lawyers.

I received a similar reply as well. He also informed me that United Artists owns the rights to "cannonball Run", and they will most definitely persue taking legal actions towards this guy.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO!!! !!!!!

[allmotoronly]

Here is the message he sent me.

Thanks for the note. I have forwarded the information off to the lawyers and they can deal with it. We are quite aggressive in protecting the "Cannonball" name, as is United Artists that owns "Cannonball Run", so I expect that some action will be forthcoming.
The thing that scares me is that he'll run the event no matter the title and hurt someone along the way. An incident like that will negatively impact all enthusiast events that happen to use public highways, besides the opportunity for massive lawsuits.

^YEP!!!!

HAHAHAHAHA OWNED KID DOUBT US NOW *****

[redrumracer]

lol at yall this **** about cannonball run, they may have cannonball run copyrighted along with 25 other people but the title of the run isnt cannonball run, its cannon ball run, yes separating the words makes a huge difference, this will never see a second in the court rooms.

by all means if you are going to send emails to the guy who does 1 lap of america then by all means send ones to these people also. there are many copyrights for cannonball run or as his is appropriately titled cannon ball run there are only 2.

also if he made the whole official title "cannon ball run aka cbr08" then no one has a copyright on that so he would not have to worry about it.

[Elbow]

Um yes actually yes he does....

I sent exact names and there are options to sue him, I have already talked to people.

You are not a lawyer.

hmmmm next time quote which part your disagreeing too, and if you are talking to me then go back and tell your people that they are stupid.

Search cases, events like this using this name CAN be taken to court and will hold up, mainly because it's the general name being used, and I am sure he does not have any proper paperwork.

My "people" I assure you know a LOT more then you, one guy is a HUGE lawyer you have probably heard of and is a family friend.

why search up cases when i can go look at the copyrights themselves and see that if he went with the name cannon ball run aka cbr08 then its not copyrighted at all.hell cannon ball run is only copyrighted by 2 people. oh and its protected by copyrights from the first moment he has documented proof of using the work if he so chooses to go ahead and copyright it himself. ill trust what i read and infer from the copyrights website vs a "family friend"

[Elbow]

He can be sued for more then just copyrights, family friend = big time lawyer, call his office if you like. I can give you his name/number. You will know it.

Thanks have a good day noob

by all means what else can he be sued for? and honestly i doubt ill know the lawyers name. not watching tv or listening to the radio=fail on my part

and if its that one call thats all guy then....well....oh well, tell him he is an ambulance chaser.

[allmotoronly]

It's not a matter of copyrights, it is a matter of registered trademark infringement. That means that the guy can't even use anything close to the same name while refering to the race. Look it up. A trademark covers the name and any likeness to the name. He in no way can call it cannonball or cannon ball anything as long as he is referring to a race.

It would be the same as if you pissed in a bottle and called it "Bud light aka BL08". You can't do that.

yea thats only cannonball. not the whole thing in its entirety

although cannonball run IS trademarked but its trademark has been abandoned.
the op is titling the event as cannon ball run, not cannonball of America or anything like that.
