    From memory [it was 22 years ago we drove this route] there were signs along the way, telling you to turn off your air conditioning to stop the car overheating- maybe they get a lot of broken down cars or something? THere is no way on gods earth I would have turned off the air con though!! A scenic drive, and nice to reach the strip at dusk.

    We did it in the summer too. Getting out the car was like having a hair dryer blowing in your face with the hot wind. We also found the ground so hot that even in shoes we had to keep raising our feet to cool them down

    We did this route in a hire car as well. We set of really early so we missed the midday sun, still very, very, hot.
