Game's on! Ultimate Ecomodder Fuel Economy Challenge

[Matt Herring]

Mullett -

Get your fuel log entries in there...can't be too many since Oct. 14. I'll recalculate the spread vs. Bhazard with your new 90 day and post it on the thread in an updated bracket. I trust you...who wouldn't trust the Mullett?

Ok, seems fair enough.

I just entered my fuel log. Sorry it took me so long, it was time for the family to eat dinner.

But, now I am full and ready!

[Matt Herring]

Thanks Sean...after Mullet updates his fuel log I'll update the tourney bracket in the morning with the new numbers...you actually gained .26 in your 90 day so you just gave yourself a little more work to do vs. Binger...Man Up and get 'er done!

Yeah, I was gonna save that whine for just in case. We just got some lovely lake effect and the roads are slicker than snot...

This may get me out of my lurking ways.

But the timing isn't great. Darn college town traffic + first snow of season!

So, do I move on if my next fill up is more than 12.98 mpg over 1337's?

[Johnny Mullet]

OK, I am up to date and my car can deal with this cold weather since the block heater was installed. Game on!

Kewl beans! I'm going on a decent tank -- my goal is to keep my averages above 40mpg over the winter. My previous high was ~41.7 before ecomodding, and so far I've stayed above that; which is great, I think. We'll see what happens if I have to go to snows (I have Hubcab Mike's flush covers coming) -- and of course driving in snow storms will be an incredible challenge...talk about roling resistance, slippage, and having no control over speed due to traffic.

i thought this would be interesting and give us some extra motivation in the cooler temps...for the cold weather temp guys...will make it even sweeter if u take down a warm weather modder.

to answer robbies question...your next tank mpg plus your handicapped added mpgs has to be more than your opponents next tank mpg to advance.

in the second round we take your new 90 day avg and your new opponents updated 90 day avg and figure a new handicap added mpg for one of the drivers...its ncaa hoops tourney meets vegas bookmaker...meets ecomodder!

Oh, wait. Is trash talking allowed?

I am ... conflicted. I am a fan of Vibes but for some reason I wish to crush yours. How can that be, ?!?!?!? It's a good thing I have a ton of internal rear view mirrors, otherwise, I wouldn't see you creeping up (or back as you lower your MPH as you increase your MPG) behind me.

I'd better not document that Winnebago I've been using to flat-tow my car all over the place. Lots of free miles there. .

robbiew...

i sent my last message from my celly and didnt have my bracket in front of me for reference. in your case you are giving mpgs to the benz so you have to beat his next tank plus adusted mpgs to advance. good luck in the tournament!
