I'm not going to take this lying down!

You may have bumped me from the top 10 in % over EPA but I'll be back.
You will all see!

Just need to get rid of that Miata that hasn't updated a tank since September.

Once the holiday season is over and I can actualy get two days off a week again I'm going to work to aeromod my car further so I can beat basjoos.

Well, could be worse. In my category, the top guy seems to have a glitch where his Prius mileage is reported for his Jeep...
