ismaelg Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 "The first rule of Italian driving....(rips rear view mirror off) what's behind me......is NOT important!" classic! Gumball rally: A true classic indeed. That was actually a Puerto Rican actor: The late Raul Julia doing the role of Franco Bertollini...

Nick F40 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Great actor, great performance in the Gumball Rally, and that depicted the actual Cannonball better then the Cannonball movies. Great things come out of Puerto Rico That sound in the movie can NOT fake that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
