(That happened to me quite a bit, actually, because I don't drive an awful lot, often going more than 90 days between tanks. It also meant that vehicles which had been "abandoned" in the garage showed permanently outdated 90 day stats.)

For the competition, the calendar is the reference.
Thanks - I see this as a good change.
