You have a heavy foot. Once you learn to drive the speed limit your gas milage will increase. haha

I had to make a business trip down to whacko and on the way back I must have had a good tail wind (plus my boss was in the car).. but that little computer in my instrument cluster actually read 32mpg

normal around town driving I only get about 21 to 24. Probably less lately since I went for a trip in the IS-F. Made me want to start using my paddles more.

I'd be interested in jumping in with you Cali guy for the last half of you trip. I'm in NM right off the I-10 then it's just 10 more short hours to DFW.

I am curious to know if anyone plans on being in the DFW area before the 24th???


Since I am in Austin, I probably will get there right on saturday. I'd like to leave in the morning. If anyone is coming from austin, or on the way....is the morning fine or should we go later?

Add me to the list. I'll be late to Sewell, or meet up afterwards, have to work. Might need a contact number from someone just in case. Is there a pre meet on Friday night?

That is what I am trying to schedule. I was hoping people would come in before sat so that way they can get settled in their rooms and we can get things together so on Sat Morning we get up for breakfast and start our day. As things progress I will be the point of contact. I will give my numbers closer to the meet
