M&L Loveland step things up a notch this year with the creation of a boat tail on their Civic.

If you've never been to the Green Grand Prix, it is not uncommon to see competitors push their vehicles to the line, especially those who are farther back and have to wait for numerous cars ahead to be released:

During the event, there is a mandatory 5 minute pitstop. This car looks as good sitting as it does driving!:

At the end of the day, the Civic logs 98.70 mpg!
(I believe the Civic and Centurion had similar experiences at the pump.)

Team Civic graciously hosted an after-event get-together and I think we covered every hot-topic on the planet - lol! Thanks Team Civic!
