Yea I agree 500 Whr/mile... yukk!!! I don't get that bad with the
tires smoking!!! On a bad day..read I am in hurry, and I am not in a
good mood... I get about 380 whrs/mile. More like 250 to 265.
Living up to my Madman nick name can have some detrimental effects on
my cashflow. I just spent 5 days putting the Turbo Crapi back together
after a burnt valve, a broken head bolt,rusted dowel pins...glazed plug
and about 2 inches of rain. It now goes sideways in first gear and
launches like it used to...Pay the bank for a new one or 5 days with no
pay under a cold wet greasy power plant. But hey I gotta have my 200
mile fill'er up anywhere Hot Rod. Goldie would have been nice for parts
running but she's up in Bellingham playing 1200 amp test mule.
