You go to have targets in your life. That is my and my companys target to prove my exellence to other. So if I can improve even the best car out there by 33% I must have some skills for the job. When I am driving on the road my smile is usually quite big but when I reach that target I will scream for joy!.

No progress will be made unless you try to push your boundaries and try to change the world. Also every 0.1 liters I can drop my fuel consumption means over 60€ saved during that year. I also want to save my personal time which is even more valuable than those fuel savings so I wont like to drive slow to save fuel and money. I want to drive fast and save money and my own time...

With stock car there is no chance in 2 liter range @ 90 km/h speed. My current best is 2.35 behind a truck @ average 85 km/h.
