For anyone interested, the coast-to-coast-to-coast Cannonball record (65:28) was set by a Saab 9-5 last year too. https://www.saabplanet.com/cannonball-run-record-a-saab-9-5-...

As for safety, I think these folks are safer drivers than many I see on our highways staring at their phones.

Maybe they drive safer, but when something out of their control happens they're dead with such speeds. Also, I don't see how you can be an optimal functioning driver after sixty hours behind the wheel.

I start seeing pink jackrabbits out of the corners of my eyes after about 40 hours.
