Title: White Airspeed Panel In Fort St John
Post by: driverfound on August 20, 2007, 10:03:13 PM

hey guys. great show.  it was good to put some faces to some names and finally see everyones vw's.  the races in mission kicked ass.

 I made it back to fort st john (1300kms) in the panel i bought off geoff without a hitch.  i had that little sucker going 130km/h a few times and passed quite a few cars. i left at 1-1:30 the day of the show and got in to williams lake about 8:00.  left williams lake this morning @ 9:30 got to fort st john @ 5:30-6.
stopped for gas in abbotsford 25L, hope 30L, cache creek 40L, williams lake 30, prince george 36L and chetwyn 42L.... 203L/1300km = 15.6/100km = 4.056gal/62.14 miles = 15.32 miles to the gallon. not bad for 100-125 most of the way, huh?

oh hey i forgot.  where was the heb rod?
