I drove my 68 squareback from the badlands to Chicago in 18 
hours. I believe that was about 1160 miles. That was in 1968 when 
the car was almost NEW! Those weren't my fastest miles of that 
trip, those had to be the hour or so I spend at ~95 mph in Montana. 

In those days there was no speed limit there in the daytime. I don't 
suppose that's the case any more....

I was truly beat after that drive; I don't see how Russ can keep that 
up for 26 hours.
