<VV> Longest Vair trip in a day

[mark at noakes.com]

The best I think I can come up with in one day is from Memphis to San 
Antonio which is about 740 miles.  This was in the 61 Lakewood in the 
80s.  The most I can remember making in a day in my 66 Monza was the 
rather regular trip between Morristown TN and Hampton Rds Va in the 
70s...a quick 500 miles or so.  Both of these cars did heavy interstate 
travel and were faithful and reliable for many years of service.

The longest I've ever driven non stop wasn't in a Corvair; it was in 
my 86 Chevy Silverado with the twin tanks/32 gallons total...9 hours 
straight solo and about 600 miles to the truck stop just short of the 
VA/MD border on I-81...and no...no diapers...just didn't drink much of 
anything the day I left.  This was so I could make Carlisle PA 
fairgrounds on a tight schedule...made it btw...trip back was more 
leisurely.

OK...  For entertainment purposes only..  on a bit of a holiday.

What is the longest distance YOU drove a Corvair in one day?  This 
would not 
include switching off drivers.  But, if you post that, you should say 
how 
many drivers shared the duties.
