EDIT July 19: I'm back from Vacation -- what a great trip! Well, I guess it's back to work (and FETC too). Thanks again to Lug_Nut for the data double-check. Please note the errors and changes. Summary of changes: when Antoine was added, an incorrect calculation occurred in the spreadsheet. Antoine's final average should be 89.59 mpg and the team average 14.9%. Items in
RED show changes. No changes to rankings apply.
Also the spreadsheets are attached (Final Audited Results and Raw Data).
Best of luck in Cycle 3!

Hey all -
I'm on my way to Alaska for vacation, and this is probably the last spot I'll have Internet for a week or more.
With that, the following is considered "Provisional Results" until double-checked and finalized...
If a correction is required, then it will be made public...
Also, I'm unable to post the spreadsheets with the computer I'm using (funky work-related compression software). Raw data and the results spreadsheet will be posted soon.
Without further delay, the results!
