Longest one day non-stop engine running trip....Montreal-Topeka 2,400km in 1 day....and then back. My manifold cracked in two on that one.

just this summer between vacation and 36 track days I logged 30,000km between Expo III and Watkins Glen in October.

Considering Expo IV in Arizona, which would be 36hrs 3,500km dohhhhh

Fly in to Ft. Worth and picked up my R. Drove back to GA in 11 hours. About 800+ miles. Managed to pick up 1 speeding ticket in Alabama. That's the longest trip that I've taken. However, that's not the longest my car has been on. A couple month's back Len borrowed my car one weekend and took a 1400 mile road trip from SC to PA. :o
