Ken, it was great meeting you and your son.
I'm so glad that at least one Ecomodder came out to join me. Unfortunately quite a few car people dropped out at the last minute. Here's what all of my efforts churned out for this event.
This is an unlikely candidate for mpg work as it is a '91 Nissan Sentra SE-R with the larger 2.0 liter performance engine.
I'll start another thread in the aero section with more detail and to have my mods critiqued.
OK, as the fill/refill man for the cars, these are the only results I've got so far. I will post the official results when Steve's wife sends me her spread sheet from the event.
