Wow. To be listed in the official wiki history as the current cross-country record holder really is something, I think. I’ve still never met Brock Yates, though. I wonder if he’s read "The Driver", because I give him some serious props, if you read between the lines. If I were him, I’d smirk, laugh, call me an idiot and make me buy the first round.
 






















Congradulations Roy and David!!
I wish I had the time, skill, money and know how to do what you guys did!
congratulations! your exceptional achievement is being recognized once more. Keep up the good work in 2008!
That´s a great thing!! They should put you and David on No.1 at their Time-List!!
Greetings from GoodOldGermany!!!!
I am not sure why he didn’t make you buy the first round either. But hey you must be a star, you are hitting the big time!
congratulations man, you deserve it.
Congrats! and also have a Happy New Year.
Congratulations! Hopefully most people will recognize the record for what it is, even if it cannot be directly compared to the old runs. You did an amazing achievement.
Nice! And Congrats.
Just found it while researching Cannonball history.
Read “The Driver” and found it inspirational. I was already planning a drive across Australia (not a race or time trial, just “for the hell of it”) and the book gave me pleanty of food for thought.
Can’t wait for the documovie. PLEASE hurry up and release it, or I’ll have to Watch Gumball 3000…..again
Nice level of information here. There is so much data around about this subject that sometimes you cannot see the wood for the trees but you have pitched this at just the right level so that the lay person can understand - thank you!
