Route 66 map/book recomendations

Same. I thought about driving out to CA and starting at the Santa Monica Pier, but we've already got nearly 1,400 miles of road to cover following Route 66 from Topock, AZ to Springfield, MO. Right now we're planning 4 days for the trip out, which is way over the 200 mile per day recommendation from @str12-340. But, given that the event itself is 9 days long, that's about the best we can do. We'll go exploring as much as we can during the event too. Thirteen days of me and two 70 year old dudes lumbering around in a 54 year old car should be interesting lol.

lol.. thats one thing about being is sickward is i should be able to get out of the track at noonish and go explore. i did sickweek with a friend. his chevelle is a 12 second car so he was in "D" class. man, all but one day we were last to run. had to sit around the track all day and the travel from track to track was all done with very little daylite so no real scernery during the drive. it looks to be about a 4000 mile trip for me.. looks to be about 1100 miles (17.5 hours) to ozark raceway for us. i'm off all that week so i can take my time getting there. could easily do it in 2 days buyt may just nake it a 3 day trip. new mexico is 1900 miles (30 hours), don't have to back to work until oct 23rd so we should be able to take our time on that leg.
