This is getting a fair amount of attention, and most of it is bad.
The bullet: Three (possibly four) drivers have leveraged the Covid-19-inspired traffic conditions to strap into a 2019 Audi A8 and set a new record for the NYC to LA run of 26 hours 38 minutes.
This breaks the previous record, set just last year, by almost 45 minutes.
On the one hand, "why not?" It gives a few guys something to do and the absence of traffic on the highways reduces the overall risk of the drive.
But on the other hand, many people - good people - are saying that it was an improper exploitation of the current situation.
Good debate, I think.
And for the record, the new one works out to an average speed of 112.41 mph.
