NY to LA in 32 Hours (Via Automobile)

Hmm, this looks like it could be an interesting documentary. It certainly looks better than those videos of the gumball retards.

Too bad I have a PC, not a Mac. (I've never been able to get quicktime to load properly, all I get is the sound).

Denis,

Have you updated to the newest version of quicktime. Once you do that you should have no problems.

That is pretty insane - *averaging* 90+ mph for 32 hours straight!

90-100mph on the interstate is not that big of a deal most places, I've averaged over 85 on several legs of long trips. (Which means constant 100+ blasts).

Still, these guys had an incredible average speed. (And hardly a wiz break).

If you would like to know more you should read the book "Cannonball: the Worlds Greatest Outlaw Road Race" by Brock Yates. It is a very entertaining book.
