minus-squarepyrflie@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up25·1 year agoFun fact for my fellow Americans the current Cannonball Run (New York City to Long Beach, Ca) record is 25 hours 39 minutes at an average rate of 110 mph. So you can cross the country in just over a day provided you drive like a bat out of hell.

minus-squareRyumast3r@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·1 year agoIt’s always been illegal. There is still a sign at the Portofino hotel in LA with the current record and it is definitely up to date.
