Definitely worth a read if you're into that kind of thing.

Yeah its a pretty old article (2007) so it was probably published in the lead up to that being released.

  added year to the title. I believe the drive took place a couple years prior to that, and publication was delayed while they waited out statutes of limitations

I really enjoyed that book as well. Around that time, I came a across a documentary about both his run as well as the old Cannonball and US Express races. It was still being made at the time, but it's been released since. http://www.32hours7minutes.com/ http://www.32hours7minutes.com/ I haven't seen it yet, but it looks quite good.

    Same here. I was really excited when I first found out about it, but then it didn't come out for another few years. I'm sure I'll be ordering a copy soon, though.
