Hi Gavin,
I've been thinking about something
you wrote last night. "getting about
21 mpg, is that bad?"
I'm not so sure it is that bad for what you've done
to your car.
I live in flat land, Northern Illinois, and
drive a stock '90 9kt. When I go on
the interstate I drive 70-75 and can get
about 25-27 mpg. I average about 22 around
town. My milage goes down strongly when my daughter
drives my car - she's off the line a bit
faster and likes the kick of the accelleration etc.
But, back to the point. You drive pretty fast,
like the performance feel, and somehow I seem to
remember that you live someplace that's not as
flat as a pancake. I know from trips along the
river here that maintaining speed on the bluffs
drops my milage noticibly.
Buck
