cool that's what i'm talkin about..... it seems the americas best value inn are quoting different prices to different people... i know they tried to screw marty and christy over once... raised the rate on them after there stay was over..... so have them confirm the price through a email or fax...... just a thought.. maybe they just dont like us northern people...LOL

marty i got the motor dialed in with a 26 et copy... i hope i make it on gas. i have a nice lean spot around 6000 rpms. the egt's are at 1150*. they actually drop after that if it spins higher.... i may have to pack a extra can....

looks like we will have a good turn out this year.........

Roy, I bet ya get close to the same milage with the 26 as you would with that big 15x30 ' by not lugging down you motor...If you can keep your foot out of it...:laughing
Stopping and taking off is what will suck down the fuel.

One week to go!!! :big grin

Roy, when I made the run, I cruised 50-55mph with a 24 TXP and made the trip in a little over a half tank. I have a 30 gallon tk.

we cruise at about 60 on the way up, and 80 or 90 on the way back. i will have to hit a 100 atleast once.... might be tough with 3 people.. you might be right marty, with the 30 i would cruise and get 3.5 mpg. the top end runs kill you!!!!!!!!!!!!

chad are you going to make it???????????
