    Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

    = (500 miles) / (6.7 hours)

    = (500 / 6.7) (mile/hour)

    = 74.63 miles per hour.

    I imagine there were quite a number of pit stops included in that.

    This is faster than I expected when I first read your question.

    That's really gettin' with it for cars in 1911!
