NachtRitter,

Impressive preparations comparing to two pieces of cardboard I put on Berta before my trip to Prague, but again I wasn't counting for 70+ MPG tank. Can't wait to see the actual numbers from your trip.

Can you give us some more details? Are you talking hypothetically just for doing some match purposes, or actual Cd number of one of your cars?
