"Yakima to Meridian. The 127 mile leg from Baker City to Meridian had a little tailwind. Drafted a bit too. Steeper climbs with gradual decents this way. The 127 mile leg on Scangauge was 70 mpg at 59 mph ave in 100 degree afternoon and the calibration was spot on at fillup." |

"Sought out gas without ethanol for the fillup. Will see what that does to mileage. Problem is I have front pants now and I moved the IAT sensor into the water air heat exchanger. This will give about a 15 degree fake boost to intake air which will affect scangauge calibration. Yes multiple variables all at once." |

"Installed the Pirelli P6 tires sometime in this tank. They follow grooves in pavement and do not roll really round. Car often vibrates a little bit. Tried different wheels and rebalance. Would not recommend these tires but they do have low rolling resistance." |
