    I think it's about three days, isn't it?
    Everything I say is either loose interpretation of dubious facts or idle speculation rooted in irrational sentiment.

    Right, that's my challenge for this year

    I thought that it was about 1 hour 10 mins. I don't think that you are going to beat it unless you are driving something with better than about 300hp/tonne
