Stage 2: Engage! by Tyler Linner, on Flickr

Off to Cleveland again, hoping for 55mpg.

I rebuilt everything but the rear skirts.

-full grille block
-lower front skirts
-airflow trips on rear corners
-more thorough gap taping

Went for a test drive to my [former] college and it was really funny seeing the art kids' expressions. There's almost no wind noise. I got questioned by a neighbor on the way in just now. Ha!
