Joe... I was light footing it..... for a change.
I didn't get to the post office . I went off to our old Drag strip...
the 3 mile straight to Pt. Gamble.

2 REDs on the E-meter..... NOT flashing ...but close.
I  can make Kingston I am sure...that's 9.8 miles, but I will need warm
lead and a light foot. 
	And belive it or not the car has NOT been aligned by a pro, just my
eyeball and a hammer. Either I am good or this car is really going to
fly once set up. I was talking a DCP Customer yesterday, 18 6 volters,
over 4000 Lbs of Fiero, and he was getting 180 Watthrs per mile. WOW.
That's really good.
