Nah. All you really need to run @ 125 mph for sustained periods both day and night is a car, a gas card, a lead foot, and a road map. Don't forget to eat your lucky charms before you hit the road, I am
sure you will be in NYC in 32 hours or so
It really depends on what you want to do with a car.
If you intend to set a cross continental record then the best idea is to be prepared, and employ countermeasures so that you increase your opportunity for success, but if you aren't interested in that sort of thing than I suppose you wouldn't need "all those craps", and this car would be pointless.
