MAYDAY has passed and I am announcing the return of the 70 MPG challenge. See below for last year's initial rules and Hall of Fame results. Did I miss anyone? ("SRA" is single run average, and it counts, too.)

THE LISTS (no particular order):

1. FTA (Full Tank Average)
PaleCivic (96 Civic DX)
PaleFit (08 Fit Sport)
Winter-beater-Metro (00 Chevy Metro)
BlackFly (98 Metro)
Sport Coupe (92 Ford Tempo GL)
AerocivicLB (92 Civic CX/VX)
The Little Car (00 Chevy Metro)
Nut Wagon (91 Civic Wagon DX)
Daox's Paseo (97 Toyota Paseo)
...others...?

2. SRA (Single Run Average)
Swarthy (14 Mitsubishi Mirage DE)
Black & Green (98 Honda Civic DX)
... others ...?

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
