testing the waters

[Philip1]

for those who are planning to participate in this we will be meeting at the shell station on hwy 49 across from UNCC at 10 am Sunday. Look for my white Subaru I will have maps and directions. Bring money for fuel and munchies since you will be in your car foe a couple hours. A navigator would be a huge help as well.

2. Tom 1991 Nissan 240sx (man) 19-26 avg 22.5

If only you guys were a little further north...

I would've loved to see what the VX could do against the HF.

thank you Speedoholic for helping out on this

it was just two that headed off but it was a beautiful drive and the results are... After driving 115.2 miles

Josh (Speeoholic) managed to burn just 2.091 gallons of fuel in his 2009 Honda Fit for 55.0933mpg or 204% of EPA rating


Phil in his 1988 subaru RX burned 3.1 gallons of fuel for 37.161mpg or 186% of EPA rating

only two made this run which was a bit of a disappointment but over all it was a success and I will start the planning for a spring/early summer event
