Years back there was the cannonball run across America. There is a guy making a documentary about the movie called 32 hours 7 minutes, which was the time it took the winning car to travel from New York to LA. Wired had a good writeup on some of the work done for the moving. Unfortunately, I think the webpage has said "almost finished" for the last 8 years....On the driving like a nutbag topic, there is another race called the Gumball 3000 Rally (see intro vid) where a bunch of rich guys deck out their calls, go to lots of parties, and drive like freak shows on public roads across the globe. (looks like fun) During one of these events, which are a bit popular in Europe, a cop in Italy gave one team a bit of a hand. The video is fantastic; the cop has a psycho lead foot and the racing team almost has a hard time keeping up with him.
