I was hoping to push up diesel team by 1 mpg with my next tank but this will be far from enough to get the 1st place.

Not enough to push team honda up any though. Must recruit members!
|
If I don't eventually get a wrecked Insight to fix, this is something we can easily lean-burn our way out of. Meanwhile, where is Pale when you need him? Remember, RobertSmalls is also on his way to Hondomination.

I've got a couple of tanks coming in which should be pretty good. Just let Piwoslaw work on his driving and we'll eventually pass these awful petrol metros ;-)

Late to the party as usual, but does anyone need a Honda (Acura) member?
For those that remember the days of old, my "Commish" duties prevented participation -- it always looked fun!
Plus, I'm hitting lifetime average tank after tank, so I need a swift kick to step it up.
Accepting applications, apply within...

Can we get team progress graphs? I just realized there is no historical information with out looking at members individual MPG charts.
Snap shot info with out direction or trend info hardly motivates improvement.
Thoughts?

Smart idea. This is a little more complicated but I'll go ahead and see what I can do, since this makes lots of sense  |

So we'll be able to see the diesel team catching up with the metro one 
Benjamin, for convenience I second the request to have a link in each team page to go to the main team competition page.

A little friendly competition always helps to stir the pot and keep people excited.
I would love to join the 'dub team, and/or the diesel team, but...
I cook my own biodiesel 90% of the year, so I have no means of accurately measuring FE. I routinely break 700 miles on a tank, so I know I'm reasonably competitive. Oh well, I can watch from the sidelines.
Maybe for my birthday I'll get some instrumentation. Would that count, or do you need receipts and stuff like that? Honor system?
Finest regards,
troy
