Alright! A diesel joins the club! Summer in my half of the planet ends about Sept 21... lots of time to mod and get that tank. I missed it by less than a quarter of one MPG last year, IIRC. I had less than ideal tires and a failing battery to drag me down. Will try again this year, and I am gonna need more development of my read decklid spoiler, too. That will be fun. Testing coming!
