| M5 Trip Around The U.S. Has anyone heard of the M5 that went around the United States in some ridiculous amount of time? Supposedly he was paired up with a helicopter that would spot cops up ahead.      |

| I'd be interested to see how quickly it could be done without the bells and whistles he used as I'm guessing they were unavailable when the previous record holder drove cross-country. Not only did he have a superior car, but using nightvision and having a look-out plane for parts of the journey gave him what I consider to be an unfair advantage. His attempt was not an apples-to-apples comparison.
