I am looking to see several things here logging it. First off, how far we drive each year, I haven't kept track of that for a while. Second how much we are spending on gas. And finally what my year long average gas mileage is.

Planned Mods:
- Lighter wheels, the current wheels weigh 22 lbs each, and since city driving hurts me the most I would like to decrease starting resistance which is most efficiently done by reducing unsprung weight. Wheels are additionally rotational weight and reducing that will greatly improve how easy it is to get the car rolling. I have planned a set of 14.9lb wheels, only wish I could afford O.Z. Ultrallegera's as they have some that go down to 12lbs.
- Partial block off of the front grill using filter foam. Filter foam should reduce the amount of air flowing through the front grill, at least that is the hope. I don't want to block it off completely though.
