The Seattle PBS station has played a documentary on the Alaska Yukon Pacific Exhibition of 1909 a few times. It features, as part of the story and the exhibition, a cross country automobile race from New York to Seattle.
Came across the 1959 story in the Tri City Herald. And some additional online info.
An overview article of the race by the UW.
And a look at the cross country race from the Ford No. 1 race car.
