92% and 43 miles. Forget the time, but I think it was about 900secs.

The only one that I had no idea, was Iowa. The rest I knew approximately where they were.

Played a second time which I figure is mostly a memory thing, plus, as some folks have indicated, depending upon what states you get in what order will make a big difference. My first state was Colorado, which put me a little off, but not much.

98%
5 miles
273secs

Funny thing, I almost got bit by Iowa again.
